&quot;GUS's PLATEAU&quot;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
After the accident, this freestanding mesa became known as &quot;Gus's Plateau&quot; by fellow air tour pilots and friends of Captain Wallace Gustafson. &lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
The 6,400 foot formation of sedimentary limestone and sandstone is located in the mid-western portion of the Grand Canyon. The plateau is encompassed by the Hualapai Indian Reservation and therefore requires a special permit from the tribe to access.
