UPDATE*** - I recently revisited the site and found the actual DC-3. That album is located in the "Plane Wrecks" directory.

This was our first attempt to locate the Gambler's Special. We failed in finding the DC-3 but we ended up finding the wreckage from a rescue helicopter instead. We would revisit this site again and discover we were only a few hundred feet away from it the first time.

With 32 passengers & 3 crew members aboard, this plane was on its way to Burbank after leaving Hawthorne, NV. It never made it and crashed in a 11,700' granite face in the Eastern Sierras in Feb. 1969.
