Let me first start off by saying I’m not out looking for Souvenirs.
I’m actually just out hiking I’m trying to locate historical sites on my trips. I’ve been out there a few times already. Having not located the site itself, has anybody been able to locate it and if so could you help me get a little bit closer or narrow down my locations. Thanks for the help if anybody is able to shoot me a private message that would help. |

Ok, thanks guy the direct copy and paste worked. I had seen the page before.
I was out in meadow valley this week and I was only able to make it to what I believe was the valley just west of the ejection seat and memorial site. It was just getting dark and we had to make it back to the vehicle before dark. I am going out again the week of thanksgiving and want to be out there before the sun comes up. |

Wonderhussy is quirky and not everyone's cup of tea, but she has a good video on going to the site with some wide shots to help identify the hills and the road in.

Post a trip report if you succeed and even if you don't. Would like to see the pics.... |

I'm pretty sure searching the net for info on 928 after reading Mahood's story lead me to this video, which lead me to all of her videos. Usually a fun watch, and great for researching a spot before you head out.

Her solo adventuring though is refreshing. I love seeing a video of hers and recognizing the place from my travels in the desert. Definitely a great way to check things out prior to a visit as well. |

I found the memorial this past weekend and I will post some pics here. Unfortunately you can’t drive in to where the memorial is as everything has been washed out pretty bad from rain. I tried to clean out some of the debris, but the ruts and rocks were just too big.
Im still narrowing down the location of the planes impact site though. Once I find that I will post some updates. Pano of the memorial  Regular picture of the memorial site
