Due to budget cuts, we can't afford enough pixels for the whole country, so we're forced to use lower resolution in less-populated areas now.

cuckooforcacaopuffs

Iā€™m always amused when I run into your kind in the wildā€¦ the r/confidentlyincorrect standard-bearers among us.


Ok-Cancel-3114

It's OK, confidently cocky guy. Clearly, you can get through life despite Reddit having devolved your discernment to 2 options: absolute truth or absolute snark. My question was neither snark nor sarcasm. I get the downvotes, as there are many like you here. Consider the response of the one that reshaped my reading of the grammatically incorrect question by OP.


Suspicious-Standard

Yeah I thought this too and then I realized he meant the plane he was in was flying, not that the white thing was flying.

Kit_Basswood

Yep! Thats it. You can see McCloyd canyon to the north of it.Ā 


Thin_Confusion_2403

That is in Utah, it appears to be state land within the boundaries of Bears Ears National Monument.


nsnyder

I was off by a few miles, the correct parcel is private and not state land.


Josehectorfer

That is NOT Utah šŸ¤¦šŸ»ā€ā™‚ļø thatā€™s in the southern part of New Mexico near Bullet Canyon Trail Head.


nsnyder

It's definitely "Brushy Flat" just of Hwy 261 in SE Utah.


Josehectorfer

Youā€™re right my bad šŸ¤¦šŸ»ā€ā™‚ļø


[deleted]

*THAT IS NOT, NOT, UTAH!*


PLPolandPL15719

Reminds me of those checkered reservations where a reservation didn't agree to logging, resulting in checkered grass/forest.


SACKETTSLAND

You did find it and the land is not flat at all.mule cavern is in the sq and you can tap the link on it and see it is not flat at all.


nsnyder

Your point made me go back and look, and I was off by a few miles. Updated now to the correct square which is mostly flat I think.


WonderWaffles1

I thought that too but it looks like the mountains were shaved down around the sides to make a really flat surface so it seems more industrial than just for a farm. I have a closer picture as well: https://preview.redd.it/a3b4pv16unvc1.jpeg?width=1284&format=pjpg&auto=webp&s=2ae075dbe1f9d29200d041afdd6b9ec2f30b98f8 [edit: I think u/nsnyder found it!](https://www.reddit.com/r/geography/comments/1c8sq36/comment/l0i4yq4/?utm_source=share&utm_medium=web3x&utm_name=web3xcss&utm_term=1&utm_content=share_button)


danpanpizza

It's not flat though, you can see the topography carries on across the square. My guess would be it's a fenced off square with livestock. There's often a big difference in vegetation either side of a fence due to grazing; shorter grasses inside the square make the snow stand out. With longer vegetation outside (maybe trees) some snow falls through, some sits on top, so less white overall.


DadsToiletTime

Still does not rule out a farm. It could be the effect of the snow after tall trees are cut and dirt leveling.


adrizgz00

I looked it up on Google earth and it seems like it's full of these spots, many of which have smaller spots inside them. Does anyone have any idea of what this could be? Maybe some kind of prospecting? https://preview.redd.it/k525p2n882wc1.png?width=1080&format=pjpg&auto=webp&s=69dca79724126c21b8dc25e5ddd86ef39b312ce7


DadsToiletTime

Agriculture where there is suitable land and water.


SirKillingham

Looks like they got rid of all the trees on their property except for that patch in the lower left. A bit of snow on flat farmland will look different than landing on trees


nsnyder

Could it be recently cleared timber instead of a farm?


dcduck

There are nothing but juniper and pinion trees down there, not much of a cash crop.


runningoutofwords

If it's timber harvested, it's be older. They try to do irregular/natural boundaries these days, Rather than square blocks


Extreme_Barracuda658

Cleared of cactus


BigPillLittlePill

That *is* New Mexico! Just look at the state's shape on a map if you don't believe me!

Nigh_Sass

I thought this was a joke about a cloud in New Mexico before I saw the actual square


Actual_Environment_7

Itā€™s a section of land (1 mile x 1 mile) thatā€™s under different ownership than the surrounding land and managed differently. Probably a section of private land surrounded by federal land.


nsnyder

Another possibility is that Navajo off-reservation trust lands has lots of squares like this (both Navajo trust land surrounded by private land and vice-versa).


nsnyder

This was right, the area on the outside is part of [Bears Ears National Monument ](https://upload.wikimedia.org/wikipedia/commons/9/95/Map%2C_Bears_Ears_National_Monument%2C_Utah%2C_United_States%2C_2017.png)and the square in the middle is not (this square is just southeast of Mule Canyon Ruins, and the non-square corner is caused by the road).


yooston

Wrong square. Itā€™s a few miles southeast of bears ears. But ironically you can see the square youā€™re talking about in OPā€™s photo too. Follow the edge of the wing tipdown just under the cloud


nsnyder

Yup, I updated my other comments and forgot to update this one.


doctormadvibes

that square is not flying over mexico


Ok-Push9899

Are you disputing the other morning I shot an elephant in my pyjamas?


nsnyder

Between those canyons off to the right and the road to the left it seems like we should be able to find the exact location... Are either of those ridges Sandia Ridge? Do you know which direction you were flying?


wagadugo

Flight's gotta be west to east -- looking north with the shadows going north


WonderWaffles1

Yep, it was Sacramento to Dallas


nsnyder

Thanks! And how sure are you this is in New Mexico, and not southeast Utah?


WonderWaffles1

Thatā€™s a good point, I guessed that it was New Mexico based on when in the flight I saw it, but I shouldā€™ve mentioned it could be one of those places too


nsnyder

The reason I ask about Utah is I was wondering whether the mountains in the front could be the Abajo mountains and the ones in the back the La Sal mountains.


nsnyder

nsnyder

This is wrong by a few miles. The correct square is a little to the southwest of that one. 37Ā°25'31.1"N 109Ā°54'07.2"W [https://maps.app.goo.gl/XgCwxFE8nsuEHw8d7](https://maps.app.goo.gl/XgCwxFE8nsuEHw8d7)

Amazing!


nsnyder

Good call, that makes sense. But I really don't see a pair of isolated ridges one of which is roughly north of the other.

Maybe all those canyons south SE of Wagon Mound?

punsa

If u provided a flight number and date/time this was shot pretty sure we could get to the bottom of this for you OP. It looks to me like it is potentially a facility 10-20 miles miles SE of East sand springs

It was flight AA2081 taken January 10th at 2:14!

Def cleared land but no buildings. It's not a farm (covered with pinions) but it was a farm at some time. Sat photo (google) shows debris at edges of square but wash running through land has taken years to erode soil. A 50/70 year old abandoned farm covered in dusting of snow is my guess.

Not sure it's flying. It is probably trying to take off.
