- In a nondescript patch of high desert north of Lovelock, nestled between two dry creek beds, the only indication of where a 60-foot impact crater once was is a patch of tall grass standing out amidst the sagebrush.
Join scientist Taylor Wilson and Nevada Independent multimedia editor Joey Lovato as they investigate the crash site of an SR-71 Blackbird.

It is interesting how many pieces I've seen out there. I ask the sheriff about it over 10 years ago, after finding several parts. He said he grew up around Lovelock and had hunted birds in that area for years. He didn't know anything about it. I had him take a picture of the map I drew but have never shown it to anyone else. The Reno FAA rep didn'tknow what I was talking about either. One larger piece I took a picture of had a silhouette of large numbers still visible.
Such an interesting and well put together story. I can’t believe I’m the first comment or that the views are at 1.5K. This is probably going to get some major traction. Great work!
yeah major traction, then the site will be gone forever
stop making videos about mines
stop making videos about caves
stop making videos about crash sites
stop making videos about cabins
you're destroying the desert, go back to whatever state you came from and leave this place intact and unmolested
these places survived this long because the internet and videos like this didn't exist, now they won't last another decade because everyone wants to blow spots up, stop it
It was an A-12 that crashed.
Why post this location online?
I don agree with this at all, now it will be picked over by people and nothing will remain
People who post stuff like this online are doing nothing but ensuring the death of these sites and destroying history for some views and a small dopamine hit, it’s pathetic.
they do it for the views. its called selling out
