I'd just pull off on the shoulder of the 'base road' ( from Rosamond to the West Gate ) for a short walk in.

"The [H]appy [B]ottom [Riding C]lub was perhaps 5 miles from the west gate"

Respect Pancho Barnes.

Lying Wikipedia and the lies they lie?

en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Pancho_Barnes#The_Happy_Bottom_Riding_Club

I had not known that she was "a founder of the first movie stunt pilots' union. "

Rio Oro Verde Fly In Dude Ranch on the title filed in Bakersfield, Kern county, named HBRC by test pilots some time later in a book about Pancho. Correctly named in the wiki.

When I lived in Tehachapi, she died and there was a whole section about her by the local fan base published in the weekly paper

First stunt woman, and afaik, cut the word pilots out of the union name.
