A blimp? I wasn't aware that there was one, but it definitely is in the area you mentioned.
In Cornado Nat'l monument, garden canyon and the canyon just to the south. Is the blimp still watching?
We were down there years ago and saw tracks of turkeys.
Apparently Alaska is the only US state where they have not been successfully introduced, so your friends are probably right. Here's a map: http://ebird.org/ebird/GuideMe?cmd=decisionPage&speciesCodes=wiltur&getLocations=northAmerica&reportType=species&bMonth=01&eMonth=12&bYear=2005&eYear=2009
I don't recall, but I think I remember some friends saying there were few wild ones near this site. Now I know what to look for next time. ;)
Makes me think of a turkey feather. But I don't think you have any there.
