climb the steep side of the mountian

Antler is hard to learn but is even harder to jump in and attack the hardest part first. At times this is the best solution.  I did not want to work the base or tip so I cleaned up the flattest side and climbed the mountain from one side only. The following is an example of how to knap the top side of the platform. Reverse so to speak and easy to snap a piece doing this but it was my path tonight and thought people might enjoy my fun.

Last one had to run to town. Did this make sense?

I always refer to it as taking the shell off of the turtle...Dang good job at thinning it. Was this all billet strikes or indirect? I would have liked to have seen the platform on your last flake.

it was done with billet strikes. I think I can assemble it and photograph it when I get home and let you see the platform.
