Geoglyph of the Landing Strip

Posted by c tito young on 24 January 2021 in English. Last updated on 11 March 2021.

This geoglyph appearing like a massive landing strip and bisected by a channel scar 225m long x 75m wide on moderately sloped land had to be built as two massive parts to appear connected like one. There are five major lines with a center line appearing like a landing strip oriented north to south. There are many other lines in this immediate area and there is little evidence what this is for. The channel scar that cuts this particular geoglyph in half appears to have been there before the geoglyph was created. This assertion seeming older than the geoglyph is because the lines from one side of the channel scar are not razor sharp and have some “off alignment” associated to it..
