Looking For Arrowheads In The Snow
When it snows a few inches of Snow in the Center of N.M. i like going out and looking for Arrowheads. Its the Best time to go Rabbit hunting and Deer Hunting they are easier to Track. pintada kid at webtv.net

Arrowheads are very important to us here in Zuni. They are used for many different reasons, but we mainly use it for protection and healing. When I said protection, not like a knife or anything. But to keep you safe from witchcraft. And people who have been struck by lighting also use the arrowhead to treat people with ailments like muscle strains or broken bones. So if you find one hold on to it. They are very rare.

Arrowheads and Lightning
The Best ive done on Arrowheads is about 11 perfect ones in about an hour and a half but that was years ago im lucky if i find one or two in a day;.. Also found a Human Skull and its skeletal remains and lots of other human bones probably Native American on a 20 foot high Arroyo wall in the Area of the Longwalk. I didnt Disturb them but i took pictures. pintada kid at webtv.net

Arrowheads and Lightning
I forgot to mention that if you are out in the Middle of Nowhere in a lightning Storm that you have a Good Chance of getting hit by Lightning when the hair on your head stands up in all Directions. pintada kid at webtv.net

No Pics of Arrowheads
Most of the Arrowheads ive found are mostly Bird Points and maybe a couple of Prehistoric Arrowheads one of my favorite arrowheads is one that is so small you can barely see it. I cant print pictures because i dont have a Computer or Digital Camera i have a webtv box and my tv is my monitor. pintada kid at webtv.net

I just think one of the neatest things about living out here (and probably moreso in more rural areas than the E Mtns) is that there is the real possibility of finding things like fossils. so cool.
Wasn't it last year some guy down near Soccoro found bones or something of archaeological significance when he was digging up his property to do some work?

My favorite area
I use to like to hike the trails of the Manzano in the East Mountain Area. I havent been in there since the Trigo fire but im sure lots of my good hiking areas are black because of the Forest Fires that started on the west side and came over the Mountain to the East lots of people lost their Homes and were evacuated and there still might be some fires going in there. I like the Ancho area for hiking and looking for arrowheads also some places in the center of N.M. you can find fossils and Dinosaur bones even well preserved bones over 200 million years old according to the Museum of Natural History when i took them a bone i found that is Before Dinosaur and its over 200 million years old. Also the remains of the Native Americans and the Spanish in the Area of the Longwalk per my website... Pintada Kid at Google. pintada kid at webtv.net
