History

During World War II, the airport was used by the United States Army Air Forces as an auxiliary training airfield for the flying school at Lone Pine Airport, California.

It was later used as a civil airport. The facility closed sometime in the 1950s. The remains of the runways and ground facilities can be seen in aerial imagery.
