Where: Iowa · approx. 43.36, -91.22 (vicinity only)
Why this spot: 1880s+ Sanborn-mapped town on Mississippi River clamming and commercial-fishing town in far northeast Iowa below the bluffs
What turns up: Commercial-fishery and clamming camp refuse, small-brewery and soda bottles, embossed druggists, and stoneware along the historic shore
Access: Gray area.
The Mississippi is navigable, so the bed below the ordinary high-water mark is state public-trust land with restrictions on removing historic artifacts. Riverbank and townsite uplands are usually private and need the owner's permission. Iowa law protects archaeological sites and unmarked burials.
