Howdy folks, Just a few more I like. Upper left examples are dart points from Pope Valley, all surface finds along the creek and shows how long the area has been inhabited. The dug stuff there is much more recent. Three points on the right are from an old abandoned subdivision near Silver Lake Oregon. Found in blowouts in dunes and the largest example is a classic Silver Lake/Christmas Lake dart point. The broke arrowhead oddly enough, looks just like some of the points from Yuma, AZ. Super thin and beautiful knapping. Center left point is a slightly wind blasted fluted paleo point I found while hiking way the heck and beyond SE of Bristlecone Pines in Calif. Super wind blasted white point is a crude paleo point or knife found on an old gravel bar at Owens Lake, CA. Area all gone now due to reclamation efforts. Buddy and I found a pocket full of these and some were even made of a picture jasper very like that new Sahara jasper. Always wanted to go back and look for the source. Never did. Points lower right all from Modoc area, streambed finds. neat points by lonerider652000, on Flickr
