Historic Airports of Death Valley
#8
Since the discussion is widening in scope and area, South Park, in the Panamint Range, used to be an air strip, often used by the late Sylvia Winslow. I believe one of the two roads crossing the flat was the runway, the one in the middle of the valley. Last time I was up there, it was far too rutted and full of bug dust. Winslow was also a prolific painter and the Maturango Museum in Ridgecrest features her paintings.

The book was also available at ABE Books.

Below is a short bio.
