MG, thanks for this clarification and yes, this would be a fun explore.

I was curious about White Sage Flat for years. One year we started up the old road to Pinto from the pass and saw a guy going out that way. Later saw him coming back down our way. So we decided to replicate that loop, which turned out to be nice. There's a lot of Joshua trees out on the flats. There were hints of some former thin coating of asphalt like material on the part that I considered to be the air strip. We followed the old road trace that goes just to the north side of the flat.

Are you referring to the one on Bonnie Claire (dry) Lake? Or the bigger one nearby ("Scotty's Intermediate Field / Bonnie Claire Airport" at the link)?
