Heh! Heh! Well we had a real gully-washer here last night but it came with heavy winds, gusting up to 60 MPH. Lots of debris on the ground but after that rain I figured this is the day for a walk about on the mountain to see what washed out of the ground. I start out about 11AM on the downhill side from my house.
Not a lot of washout on this logging road. Just more leaves covering everything.
Ain't gonna be much down there either. And I sure ain't gonna rappel over that to see what's at the bottom.
Now this one may hold some promise.....
I can see areas of bare ground and washout on the sides. Here we go for a look see...
Now then, this has promise. Gotta get a closer look ...
Looks like they tried to work around the core on this one. The base is plainly visible but the shoulders kinda give way more core material. If you look closely at the first closeup, you can see lots of vein in the material which I imagine would hamper the flaking process. In order to get the core material off, it would have been an uncontrollable process, I think. I'm not a knapper but it just seems reasonable.
