Looks like some good rock, hope it's bigger than the picture. Kinda looks like Jasper. When I lived there that's about all I could find that was knappable.

 If you have to pull the trigger, is it really archery?

The peice is about the sive of a a 24 count crayon box just not as thick.. It is really nice smooth as butter i am just holding back on hitting it.  The only problem is that with the weather setting in up there i will not be able to get any more untill spring now..  My mom just brought this one piece she said there was alot more laying around and bigger pieces..  May have to take the back seat out of my jeep when i go and fill it up..
