Hi, I also looked for a historical plane crash site in the Four Peaks area and two places for information that were helpful was The state of Arizona Search and Rescue Director and I don't have his name or phone # right now, but I can go back thru my notes and find it if you need me to. The last is t...

Hi to All. It's been a long time since the last post and a lot has happened, but I'll try to keep it short. The last post was saying that I had found the site and that didn't prove correct. It took many more trips and allot of chance connections with people that I would make contact with just as I t...

Hi to all, Hope your Thanks Giving was good. Over the Thanks Giving holiday I received a Email that gave me the location of the crash site. They said in the Email that they had found it wile hiking in the area of my search many year ago. When they first found the wreackage and climbed up to it and w...

Hi All, The last time that I e-mailed Craig Fuller with Aviation Archaeology in Mesa, Az. he said that he has a friend in the FAA that is interested in historical crash sites and will ask him for help. When I was there at the mine site, one afternoon there was an Army helicopter flying over the area...

This is great. When I was there I found a guy that was setting up a camp for the elk hunt and he said that he hunted the area often and had not seen anything but was going back to town and would call the rancher that ran cattle in the area. I talked to him the next day and he said that the rancher h...

At this time I feel that everything helps. Thank You for your thoughts.

forgot to say that the plane was a one year old Cessna 170 single engine four passanger plane silver and red.

I agree with all that with 50 years and people possible finding the site, fire, overgrow by who knows what that it is not going to be easy or possible to find. It was my mothers parents that were killed and we took over the operation of a chicken ranch that my grandparents had when I was 4 years old...

When I went there I camped in Big Pine Flats in a motorhome just off the El Oso road. I have a Honda trail 70 that I used on the road to the mine, some places are very rough. I used a two mile radius for my search, but tried to look in as much open area as possible for the first time. I looked in th...

Wow, I wasn't expecting this kind of responce and this really gives me a good feeling. You go thru life and just get used to rude store clerks, getting cut off in trafic and this is a very pleasent change. That being said I have had help from Craig Fuller, he went to the State liberary and got the n...

I'm looking for a historical plane crash site from 1954 that my Grandparents were killed in. The newspaper article from the time said that the sheriff from Globe drove to the El Oso mine, thansfered to a Power Wagon for two miles over rough trail, then by foot to the crash site. The plane missed cle...
