What little remains, is mostly buried. A streambed isn't a good place for a crash site.
The firewall is still attached.
The roll bar.
There was a few is these attached to the frame.
Joint on the frame where seven tubes come together.
Closeup of the joint showing the reinforcing plate.
This piece was attached on the end of one of the tubes.
Last look at the site. I was a little disappointed that the wing was in such bad shape, but still happy to find the site. Now it's time for me and my black fly escort to hike out.
