Tonopah Airfield 3968a

Outside Tonopah, on US 6 across from the turnoff for Belmont is Tonopah airport (still active) and the remains of the Tonopah Army Airfield. The base was a center of training during WW II, but was abandoned soon after the end of the war. Though there are relatively few standing remains of buildings, the 60+ year old wooden hangars that housed bombers are surprisingly intact -- and some are still used by local entities.
