| no partners | | Headed out to the desert south of Florence to a place I'd been to before. I knew there was a Hohokam platform mound in the vicinity which I missed on the previous visit. And I knew there was plenty of pottery on the ground there - so worth another look.
I took a different approach this time, driving in on the gas line road. It gave me enough time to criss-cross the area looking for anything interesting. Fortunately the "pottery area" is huge (several hundred yards in both directions) but unfortunately I only saw plain pottery so not so interesting. I did find the platform mound this time (don't know how I missed it before), but at this point it's just a featureless hill with a sprinkling of plain pottery on top, just like the surrounding perimeter.
Still better than sitting at home watching political ads. ](https://hikearizona.com/dex2/images/smilies/eusa_wall.gif "Brick wall") |
