I'm game. Awesome find. I am guessing this is in the north end of the Park?
Do you think this is it?

No, not convinced but I did see that also and is worth a trip to find out. His site has a number of different wreck sites in ABDSP that are worth looking into further. I think you are right about the north end though.

When I was driving back with my son last weekend I noticed a VERY bright and large shiny object or reflection of something on one the Laguna ridges. It was not near a trail or anything, it was in a deep ravine and both my son and I were trying to figure out what it might be. I thought maybe a car wreck or something but it really was way too far away from anything to be a car, an airplane wreck never crossed my mind until I saw this guy's pictures.

Interesting.
I could also fire off an email to Mark Jorgensen to see if he has ever heard of it.
Looks like it is in a really remote area

That's a great site! It's going to take me a while to go through it.

Thanks Daren

i am not thinking North end of ABSP because the mountains with that level of remoteness such as the Santa Rosas do not have that level of rock (at least the parts of the Santa Rosas that I have been to).

Hard to tell though as there are not a lot of pics of the surroundings and it is one big park.

Has anybody found this wreck. It is way cool! I'm also thinking South ABSP due to the small boulders. Maybe in the Jacumba or Sawtooth Mountains . I tried emailing somebody that's been to the site on one of the plane wreck search boards, but I've had no response. Anybody have any luck? --mitch---

I haven't put too much effort into finding this one. I did find several of the pieces from another wreck in Blair Valley though. You can see some pictures here
