CC, I have questions too. For instance...where does the white go when the snow melt? What do you plant to get a seedless grape? I struggle too but together we can get through this! Ask away....
All I was gonna ask is if in my part of the state could I find a blue arrowhead.
Does the color depend on the type of soil?
Now go ahead and laugh.

They answered in the thread you're referring to.Bluehornsstone.Those pieces are a stronger blue than many that you see.

blue is most common around here, i think it might be a hornstone material. works like a dream when i find a nodule big enough to flintknapp

If you can post pics, I can put a name on them and if the pictures are good enough, can name the lithic material also.

thanks a ton Chris, if you are interested, i will work on better pictures, less points per picture with better closeup quality, i have several hundred points, do not want to be a big bother about it, but would like to get many more of them identified, if you are willing i will post pictures of more, can do in groups of 20 and hopefully get better quality photo
