I wonder if it was just the shape of the clearing or there was some ground contour involved. You know, rock outcrops, knolls and stuff.

OK, then whether animals get freaked more or less by different sight lines and their perception of open spaces of different shapes. Sounds tough to get funding for, probably some federal money there.

I'm sure this will be easy for this crowd but I thought it was worth it for such a nice variety of aircraft in one place.
In addition to Where Is This, What Is That middle aircraft at the bottom? Something with the wings removed? |

I was thinking Palmdale, CA, but, after GooglEarthing a bit, I think, maybe not.
The fuselage might be a B-58 Hustler. W/the wings removed.

Close but not quite.
Could be the B-58, can't find pics of one taken apart. |

Another pic from the same location and another one of those wingless things, this time without the notches taken out.
Two pics zooming in on them a bit. |

Still working on the "Where", (Eastern blok somewhere I suspect) but the "What" I'm pretty sure is a SAAB J 35 Draken

Nice find, that definitely looks like it. Strange bird.
It makes sense now for where the picture is, though believe it or not you're a lot closer with Palmdale than Eastern Bloc. |
