D. Tiller:
Nah! Missed out on the Dacite.  I was looking for the forest green stuff but forgot where I found it arround 15 years ago when I first went out to the Buttes. Now I must go back when there is not snow on the ground and find it. Oh to have a 4x4 and cheap fuel!

Allen7:
Gosh, I don't know where to find the dacite or the green stuff.   However, I want to go back and dig more for silver and gold sheen the pumpkin stuff.

Hey Keenan:  While at the Colyak traditional archery shoot this weekend, I managed to knap one more addition to the Mascot Family out of the discard flakes.   It was pretty tuff concentrating with folks asking a thousand questions on knapping and primitive arrows.   Anyway here is a photo of "Mascot" little brother #2 - about 2 1/2 inch silver sheen point. 

Little John:  Our standard horseback archery track is 90 meters (98 yds) long with the target array offset 9 meters (10yds) from the center of track.   Shots vary from about 50 yards to 10 yards from the targets.   A nice practice setup is to arrange 6 portable targets equally spaced along the length of track, about 10 yards out.  You can turn them for all side shots, all forward shots, all parting shots, or a combination.     --- Allen
