1920's style aviation with 21st century technology in weight shift control light sport aircraft photodocumenting the bootheel of New Mexico. Flying 10 feet off the ground in strange places, because what can be done on the ground is more fun in the air.
These low level (100' AGL)aerial photographs are part of the Bootheel Photodocumentation Project. An effort to document the landscape in this unique and sparsely settled area of the country. http://theskygypsies.blogspot.com/ and http://bloggingfromthebootheel.blogspot.com/

In a sea of Giant Sacaton grass this old bridge was along the first route Highway 80 took through the San Simon Valley, before the modern road that now runs along the valley.
Very nice view, like, greetings
Amazing Photo!
This is the same outcrop in cave creek canyon as seen in this image, just taken from south of the outcrop instead of from the north.
Note the mimetolith in the lower right looking up at the sky.
The floating yucca.
Glad to help bring back some old memories and thank you for the background information. The land is still farmed and ranched and the old Pullman car still sits in the desert just west of the old railroad line. I have heard of 2 other sections of Pullman cars in the valley that were re-purposed, one near Sulphur Canyon and one near Horseshoe canyon but have not gotten photographs. For more current events around the valley see Blogging from the Boot Heel
I've seen corn, but I imagine any crop could be grown in these center pivot irrigation fields.
Thank you
Thank you. It was one of those special mornings.
