Steve Fossett's Crash site

I have not posted a complete picture of Minaret Lake but got one this morning.  Minaret is the Lake with the reflection.

It was a turbulent day and the terrain behind was providing the mechanical turbulence.  When low in this area its easy to get the sun backlit and be unable to see the terrain.

Breathtaking beyond words.  Thank you for posting these photographs.

Fred,

I have returned to the scene of this crime in my airplane many times and the open questions haunt me.  

Working backwards this photo is the scene Fossett flew through, from right to left about 1 minute before he crashed.  It was in this scene that he was getting in too deep. 

Its a pretty place but not so much on a 'bumpy' day.
