CHRISNERS FIND 1-11-08

Just wanted to give everyone a report on chrisners. I spent 6 hours digging on sunday. First spot i went to was the digfest trench, wanted to check it out because i didnt get to go to digfest. The digging was very hard the muck was about the consistancy of clay. Im sure there are points comming out of there the the material looks great. I spent some time on the perd camp and found a couple of broke ones not worth posting. I did however find this nice big axe in my spot so i didnt leave empty handed

Re: CHRISNERS FIND 1-11-08

Nice finds, and you're right can't beat a day in the dirt even if you dont find a thing. Thanks for the report.

Re: CHRISNERS FIND 1-11-08

Eric, good deal. For a one day shot at place [ VS a few days of test holing ] that is excellent.
Blacky is a Triangle, someone more knowledgable might offer what type.


BUT, I DO know my DARL, FRACTURED BASES....!
See that wounded skinny point with the broken base ! Thats exactly how they were made, including a NOT very needle point. See the money book, page 564 or on your favorite website flint check !
Thats a complete seldom found [ not rare ]point.

Josh, sounds [ silence ] like you might not have done so well. . . .Next time. . . " the next great find is just 2 inches further in ! "

Re: CHRISNERS FIND 1-11-08

OOooPs. . . Sorry Josh, I just reread the who's going list, you probably were not there yesterday. . .

. . . BUT. . . it's still true enough, whenever you get out there again. . .The next point might be just 2 inches in !

Re: CHRISNERS FIND 1-11-08

thanks for the info and i went home from christners yesterday and looked up the fracture base and figured thats what it was. I am glad you think it is to . That is my first one of that type.

Re: CHRISNERS FIND 1-11-08
