Well, I can't find it, but I'm going to guess it's out at the Utah Test and Training Range.

John Travolta's back yard?

John Travolta's back yard?

I don't think JT feels the need to embed his jet fighters in embankment corrals to protect them from .... UFO's?

Is it area 51?

 

[River]

It's north of the current guesses. Even Nick's.

 

[River]

Maybe a zoomed out view will help.

 

[steve]

cool find River.

 

[River]

Maybe another hint is needed. It's a little bit north of the Idaho Utah border.

After poking around on google maps, I stumbled on it:

That's it! The Saylor Creek Bombing Range.

Whoa.. that's cool. They have targets actually listed on the USGS topo out there!

My favorite sign along the road.

Ok, another hint: North of AZ border, south of I-70.

 

[Nick]

Are we looking at some sort of feature in this particular sat view or just a piece of a canyon?

 

[steve]

just a piece of canyon. Sorry, that was probably WAY too hard. Here's a bigger picture. Note: North is now up.

 

[steve]

Sorry it was so difficult. Here's another hint.

Sorry it was so difficult. Here's another hint.

Cottonwood Canyon?

 

[steve]
