The underside still had the red paint and the NAVY lettering.
Looking out to the Panamint Valley. I could hear the F-18s flying out there most of the day, but only got a quick view of one as it flew past the canyon opening.
The wing was the only piece of wreckage here, not even one other tiny piece was around.
Me with the wing.
Damage on the wingtip.
The US insignia.
Last look at the wing as I start heading down.
Hiking out of the mountains and back down to the valley.
Back on the Ballarat Road heading to the highway.
Shot of the radar station by the road. The F9F-6K site turned out to be better than I was expecting. Heading to the north end of the Panamint Valley now to check out the crash site of a F-105.
THE END
THE END
