"Wouldn't it be more likely to find Viking artifacts closer to the Eastern Seaboard"
My sentiments exactly. As a Minnesotan of Norwegian/Swedish ancestry, having been taught the authenticity of the Kensingston Rune Stone in childhood, I am predisposed to believe it is real.
However, as an engineer, trained in logical thought, it's hard to understand that the only evidence of ancient Nordic occupation of the continent has been found so far inland. And in a Scandinavian stronghold, at that.
