Some major storms tonight across Texas, Oklahoma, northwest Arkansas up to Missouri sirens woke me up at 3am hope everyone is well. been flooded pretty bad in my woods but I got out and walked a new high line path close to home today before this big storm. hit some decent bases and a really nice scraper. Lots of flint litter possibly a new site. I think we got at least 2/3 inches just tonight “so far” and at least 6 combined for the week so I’m hoping all my new feeders produce me something good or at least more insight I’ve been doin a lot of homework. The full point is just to show the base belonged to some sort of Adena most likely.

I was right in the line that dropped 5 inches before round 2 which started about 1 am and will go a few more hours. The news mentioned a photo of a tornado near the town I live just south of and two confirmed tornados that dropped southwest and moved through several miles to the north. There was what they said looked like a radar tornado that moved right over my area and I got to spend some time in the basement. Curious what daylight will bring got major flood warnings now. Sounds like they expect water to top the levys. Hoping for minimal destruction and some dirt moved to expose some points.

Looks like you’ve got a good start in your area on the artifact front. I’ve found a little lobed base like that before my best guess was rice lobed for what it’s worth

Thank you sir glad you made it out safely. I’m curious what the daylight brings as well but there is no doubt some fresh gravel to be walked I wish I had some field permissions but I’ve never put the effort into asking for any so I can’t complain to much. I’ve never hunted a field but I will sooner or later when the kiddo gets about 5y/o so I can have him knock and ask always better odds lol

I’m hoping to have a nice haul this weekend if water levels get floatable I’m on a 2 day 25 mile float specifically for bank walking should be a good one. 🤞🏼
Sounds like a fun trip. I can’t walk my winter creek until it gets cold again due to the rift raft that has moved into the area. They will leave again when it gets cold. Too dangerous to be out there by myself.

Walked for 10 hours and Storms produced 8 or so brokes and a nice hafted scraper, got two spots underwater, we’ll see what the river brings later. It May be a bit before gravel bars are exposed
