Title: 3 points finished at Flint Ridge
Post by: bowmo on September 05, 2017, 06:02:27 pm
The only 3 points I managed to finish while camping at Flint Ridge for 5 days. Made more friends than points as usual. Burlington, Avon, and Spanish Diggings.

Real nice work.  Do you know if the Spanish Diggings(Wyoming?)are accessible?

Went for the first time. Took my bucket of obsidian and Mr. Perry Smith picked out a flake and helped me chip out my first point. He also helped my 9yr old son to chip out his first one. I now have a couple I chipped out and my boy is really into it. If I get a nicely shaped flake from my work, I give it to him and he makes a small point out of it. We really enjoyed ourselves. I still can't spall worth anything but at least sometimes I can pressure flake a point. So, we are having fun.

Great points!  Like the variety.  I'm looking to be at Flint Eidge next year.  Like that one on the right..what is that?  An agatized sandstone?
