After watching the S4 Bob Lazar documentary, I got curious and decided to go on Google Earth to check out those tire tracks they showed at Papoose Lake.

I started scrolling through the historical imagery for those exact coordinates, and I noticed something interesting. The exact same tire tracks you see in the recent satellite views show up in every single year all the way back to 2006.

I'm genuinely just curious—why are these still here? I would have expected tire tracks to be completely washed away, blown over by wind, or covered up by the elements at this point. It’s been over 20 years.

They might actually be even older than 2006, to be honest. It's just that any satellite imagery from before then gets way too blurry to see anything clearly, so 2006 is the furthest back I can confirm.

Does anyone know how desert environments or dry lake beds work with this kind of stuff? Is it normal for ground scars to just freeze in time for decades without washing away?
