OK,
Lotsa lizards and not much else....exactly my point. Maybe more suited to "conjugal visits"....or "entertainment" flown in from LV?

Sat photos, yes. Of course, I've never been there, and didn't know exactly where it is, but read that it's about 6 miles northeast of Warm Springs. I went to terraserver.microsoft.com (how did THEY get involved?) and searched for Warm Springs, NV. The MS terraserver site is nice in that you can switch back and forth from sat to topo.

Once there, I remembered that it takes about 2km to equal a mile (high school was a blur), so I just kept panning NE till it said "12km NE of Warm Springs", and BAM!...there it was, big white X's on that nice runway. There are some of those big circular irrigated farms just to the south, they make it easy to spot.

Give me a break, I'm new at this....;)
