Where: Minnesota · approx. 44.05, -91.64 (vicinity only)
Why this spot: 1880s+ Sanborn-mapped town on Mississippi River
What turns up: Sawmill and steamboat-landing debris, hand-blown beer and soda bottles from local breweries, stoneware crocks, and privy-pit glass along the old levee and sandbar sloughs between the levee and Latsch Island.
Access: Gray area.
The bed of the Mississippi below the ordinary high-water mark is state-owned public trust land where removing historic artifacts is restricted; the townsite levee, banks, and uplands are typically private and require the landowner's permission. Minnesota law protects archaeological sites and unmarked burials; do not disturb them.
