  • Dune Hunting

    Had a nice day in my permission sand dunes yesterday. I started up in the north end and searched for an hour before finding a new blowout with sign. Grabbed my first piece of flint before realizing it was a point - a Keithville (Paleo). Hiked the the south end where I have 5 spots marked. Found another 6 blowouts with flint flakes. One new one was a large area and when I got to the end I was rewarded with a wicked looking pink Fairland. Found 3 brokes, the last 2 in my group photo are quartz. I was tired after 5-1/2 hours of climbing dunes but it was a good tired!

            Thanks everyone. Showed it to a friend at church. He said, “That pink one would hurt going in and when it is pulled back out!” LOL.

              My first thought on type for the pink one would be Lott. Awfully small for a fairland. Nice point either way! Those dunes are fun to hunt!

                      Thanks Red. I thought the pink one was Tecovas too, but JJ says its a different material from the Van Horn, TX area which is about 150 miles SW from where I found it. He said he only had a couple of points made from that material.
