Apologies for the poor quality of the first four photos. The photos were made as slides under poor lighting conditions and from the slides I made 8x10 color prints. They were never intended to be of report quality and therefore, look pretty bad. Unfortunately, with the exception of several others showing scrapers and other bifaces, this is all I have available regarding the earliest assemblages.
The photo of the fluted point was made by a colleague, mainly to highlight the flake scars, but because it was screened, it doesn't look very good at a larger scale.
