White's Spec. XLT..... My Eyes
I finally got a digital camera, so i'm anxious to post some pics. I'm not trying to spam everyone out! I promise.
Here are a few more from the field. The first one is my favorite find A beautiful Agate Basin... my heart stopped when I saw her. There is a nice stanfield and possibly a stanfield variation. And just the case of points they were in. One of many...hehe.

Let me know your thoughts.
happy hunting

keep your eyes on the ground.

Your site must go back to the paleo, that is unreal! People must have used your field for thousands of years. I think you mentioned that your field was bluff top. That sounds like a burial site rather then a camp site. Is it the highest ground in the area? Or is the soil sander then in near by fields with higher ground to north and west? Thanks for showing us your stuff from the field that never fails!

That first point/blade, is just awesome!!!!!!!!!! Nice AGATE BASIN!!! Holy shmokes batman! The second picture... I don't know. The third picture... wow, VERY cool knife blade! You can even see where it was hafted and later re-sharpened...NICE. Thanks for posting.
 

thanks for the posts guys!

Beanman, It's the highest ground, The soil isn't sandy either, although there are some big sand ridges about 1/4 mile to the north of the field. I'm going to try to post some more pics to give you guys an idea of what all we're finding up there!..

Thanx again!
