I heard that some stupid European embassy diplomats were driving a car around and crashed the whole valley. Is it true and what country were they from? 88.211.132.72 02:06, 27 August 2007 (UTC)Reply

Yes, that is true. I linked to the story on the main page, no idea why someone deleted the information I added though. —Preceding unsigned comment added by 74.107.149.107 (talk) 05:25, August 30, 2007 (UTC)

Article states "In the 1980s interest in the site resumed as four wheel drive vehicles became more readily available."

Refer to this article regarding when AWD / FWD was widely available. $WD has been used since WW2 in desert locations due to terrain challenges.
