Welcome Charlie, I always enjoy your posts. I'm not much of a rock man so I stand to learn a little. You'll get plenty of "feedback" in this forum.

Charlie,
That's absolutely fascinating. Have you managed to get definite dating for the furnaces?

Hey, Charlie....What's happenin', Bro?

Uh....guilty.



That furnace picture still intrigues me.

No...like I explained elsewhere, these things all look like Rohrschact tests that are out of control to me.

I have to admit that I have trouble seeing the profile and I think it is just coincidence and imagination. However, I do believe this is some type of furnace. As to the dating, I guess we'll know soon, huh? Keep on plugging away, Hatchettman. Your enthusiasm is infectious.

Severely oxidized eye-bolt? When I first saw it I thought it was stone and it reminded me of an alleged spear shaft straightener I saw in David Meltzler's book about the first americans. It's on the cover actually. I think the book was called "The First Americans" It's badly outdated now. The prevailing theory in it was the ice corridor thing which I think has been shot to hell. I'm pretty sure what you've got there is a really rusty eye-bolt. What is the context?

Pioneer stuff I bet. The furnace could be pioneer stuff. It is crudely made by a blacksmith on the trail possibly. Found near wagon parts too? Yep I'll bet it's pioneer stuff. This could be a place where they had to stop and repair a wagon. Just my imagination working here. You know how that is, right?
