Post by: longrange7mm on May 29, 2010, 05:58:31 AM: I thinink these are old indian hunting camps :dunno: I was going through some of my thumb drives and found these i cant believe i forgot about them! :o They were about 25 miles in and then we found some chips in a canyon nearby> Before it is brought up we did nothing to alter these and left everything including the chips were it was so the next hunter that finds his way in there can see what we seen :)

Post by: longrange7mm on May 29, 2010, 08:18:34 AM: I'm not exactly sure but I'm guess would be that they're not big enough to work with anymore. We usually find them on the edge of canyons or high on hill sides, almost like he was sitting up there admirerring the country beneath him.pretty cool

Post by: 300rum on June 13, 2010, 08:37:39 PM: I have found 2 areas in Washington, not on the Columbia River, with the same chips. Maybe a pickup bed or so of chips just laying there in a place just perfect to camp. The two areas are about 5 miles away from each other and maybe 20 miles away from the Columbia, both next to creeks in box type canyons.
