Friday's finds. First creek finds

I got out Friday to one of my spots that usualy produces some points. I didn't know it had been broken up back in the fall, the farmer always no tills this field and it's way off the road and you have to walk in to check it. We have had a couple inches of rain this week so I though I would go check the washes only to find it been broken up. I'm pretty sure it has been hunted pretty hard over the winter but I did manage to find this nice little point made out of some kind of yellow chert and a broke. Then I decided I would try walking a creek ( I have never hunted creeks, usually just surface hunt fields) in an area not known for artifacts but I have access so I thought I would give it a shot. I'm glad I did, I found this broke and this little point. I know it's not much but I'm pretty excited about it, it was laying there in pretty fast current and I'm not sure how it was staying in place. Thanks for looking!

Good eyes on the one under the corn stalks. Not such a bad job on the red one either. Nice looking artifacts.

clean up pics

I finally got these cleaned up. The red creek find is pretty much sandblasted but cleaned up nicely. I'm thinking Big Slough or something like that, no damage that I can see just a small undefined base and ears. Not sure on the other one. Any ideas? Lots of fine pressure flaking on this one. Thanks again for looking.
