[QUOTE="Ristorapper, post: 291820, member: 810"] My dad had a huge collection of arrowheads and some other Native American tools. He grew up in the Mott/Bentley area of ND where we as kids would help him find the tools. Most were found in the cultivated fields along the Cannonball River there, mostly just north of Bentley. Unfortunately for us kids, we have no idea where his collection is today as he had divorced our mother and remarried and since passed away in '97. We kinda lost touch after the divorce. One of my sisters is really interested in the collection if she could find out who ended up with the stuff. Interestingly enough, I wonder if that scratching the earth as a young 4-6 year old is where my interest in geology came from. Rocks certainly are interesting. You being from the Turtle Mountains, the easiest pieces of interesting rock available may be glacial striated rock from that area and further east towards Grand Forks. WE did a field trip to some glacial morraine near Pembina out in a field and found it all over the place. Not near as interesting as Native American treasures but easier to find. [/QUOTE]
