Red Wing Mississippi Landing

BOTTLE DIGGING GRAY AREA CONFIRMED

Where: Minnesota · approx. 44.56, -92.53 (vicinity only)

Why this spot: 1880s+ Sanborn-mapped town on Mississippi River

What turns up: Wheat-shipping and pottery-era finds: Red Wing stoneware shards, embossed druggist and brewery bottles, and household dump glass on the riverbank flats below Barn Bluff and around the old boat landing.

Access: Gray area.

The river bed below the ordinary high-water mark is state-owned public trust where artifact removal is restricted; the town levee, banks, and uplands are usually private and need the landowner's permission. State law protects archaeological sites and unmarked burials.
