There's a place we used to go to up near Attica that had some formations like that that could certainly have been used as shelter, but I don't know that they were.
Portland Arch?

That is so cool. Buying your own archaeology dig. Hope to see some great discoveries from it this summer.
Clovis... ain't he that feller that lives up the holler a piece?

Could be. We had a Clovis that retired a few years ago...I don't know if he moved out of town or not.
Beautiful place! BUT, I would remove your posts about digging for artifacts, if I were you. Indiana has some of the strictest laws on the books about artifacts, and they DO enforce them. It is VERY ILLEGAL to dig for artifacts in Indiana, EVEN ON YOUR OWN PROPERTY. So, I wouldn't announce it to the world.
Yeah, you don't need a dually either... or straps even!
Beautiful place!
Great looking place, that picture of the spring with the blue tinted water certainly caught the gardener's interest.
The funny thing is that there was SO MUCH native American presence in Indiana (aka: land of the Indians) that virtually EVERY construction site or road building activity turns up artifacts. .
The funny thing is that there was SO MUCH native American presence in Indiana (aka: land of the Indians) that virtually EVERY construction site or road building activity turns up artifacts. If they had followed the law and stopped construction and notified the authorities every time an artifact was discovered, I-69 would have NEVER BEEN COMPLETED through southern Indiana, and most everyone I know that built a house would have had to stop constuction due to artfacts being found at their "archeological site (aka: basement)". It is a stupid "feel good" overreaching law that came out of Bloomington (nuff said).
The soil is rich....Best I can ascertain is these geological features, starting at Hemlock Cliffs and heading south to the river, were carved out by glacial run off at the end of the Younger Dryas event.....
There is a Nature Conservancy Preserve about 1/4 mile upstream....
