Trout Creek Chert (Central Colorado)
Trout Creek Chert
Posted by [Chase]
Trout Creek Chert is a deposit in central mountains of Colorado. Named after the creek and pass that is nearby. The color variations and the quality for knapping made a sought after lithic. I have found this lithic more than a hundred miles away. Even with quarry’s closer and of good quality lithics.
