This Cessna 337/0-2 is near ghost town, Rhyolite, NV, at 36°52'8.27"N....116°47'3.26"W. (Beatty, Nevada)
My attention was drawn to this air strip after viewing nearby Rhyolite, a ghost town of some note. "The town came into existence as the result of a gold rush that began in 1904, and had its peak population from 1905 to 1910, when decreased gold production led to a decline that culminated in its abandonment by 1919." - Wikipedia.
But, my attention was drawn to this area by a Clive Cussler novel, The Chase, in which the original boomtown is vividly described.
Therein lies one of the beauties of Google Earth: novels come alive on your computer screen, complete with street names, railroad tracks and historic buildings.
