[Applause] hello I'm al fry this is the first series of strange phenomenon history of the West presentations and in it I'm going to reminisce a little bit cover some ground that you won't find in the usual books or movies and I'll show you places Manuel kept secrets up to now to begin with let's mention one of the strangest encounters I ever had out in the high country around Joshua Tree California it was up in the high desert region there that I met the girl I'd call Myrtle Reese most unusual woman I've met many ways Myrtle was evidently a high and favorite persons and many other dimensional entities of the desert over the next several years that I visited with her and knew her I was drawn into a world it was more like fantasy and in fact I should add at this point that on rather skeptical of psychics and other dimensional spirits and visions yet I repeatedly took other psychic friends to visit with Myrtle Lee almost invariably they confirmed many of her views on the local nature spirits and the ancient ruins in the area that she often mentioned and showed me what probably astonished me more than anything was the fact that there was a small tribe of what she called hobbits near the Joshua Tree National Monument in these little other-dimensional people were somewhat similar in appearance to dwarfs and they stood less than four feet tall and the evidently copied much of our present technology if it suited them they simply did it my mental creation is in several times she and others mentioned small other dimensional saucer craft that they enjoyed speeding around the desert in well according to Myrtle she first encountered these little hobbits near the Mount Shasta air in Northern California it seems that little hobbits leaders said that the vibrations in the area were changing radically and so they moved to the south into the high desert dear Joshua tree myrtle had become a great influence and aid in their life but this time she denies decided to move southward with them so while her husband found work in the Joshua tree area she spent much of her night life going in and out of the lore netherworld as they call it and part of her days mediating for the little people of the area and when I was with her she'd often mentioned various local hobbits and other dimensional gods and personages by name she evidently worked in the lower astral or nether worlds trying to get lost and misguided Souls back to a higher plane the Otherworld existences there well not being particularly psychic or blessed to the ability to see the less dense matter in atoms I couldn't see her hobbits in the area but I remember friends who could however the encounters we had showed that the hobbits were very shy and prone to be suspicious of we humans as they called us I remember once a little Hobbit youngster came out shyly up to a girlfriend that I was with and they carried on a little conversation while I sat on him looked on beside her well Myrtle constantly mentioned j.r.r tolkien the popular fantasy writer who wrote of ancient Havas according to Myrtle he obtained much of the material for his Lord of the Ring books from ancient manuscripts in the British Museum with some ability to tap his ancient sole knowledge and a little imagination his books she claimed were quite accurate l Tolkien you might recall set down the history of the ancient world in the appendix at the end of his trilogy and the Fellowship of the Ring is the last part of this trilogy with his appendix in it Appendix A for example tells of the god Kings who came from the stars originally and broke up into two factions those who wish to rule the world ruthlessly and those who grant a choice of freedom to all beings here on the planet the only great Eldar ruled with wisdom for a time but the Dark Lord's like Morgoth eventually stole some of the great power source jewels or at lanten star fire crystals as some persons know them as and in the war against evil several classes of man or Homo sapiens sided with the Eldar and it was these epic battles that Tolkien first wrote of in his books and in The Silmarillion the history of various forms of humanoids and God life was continued and some of the lords of the light left our planet some classes of being like the elves chose to leave the physical dimension and go into the next dimensions and some races disappeared altogether and at the downfall of the ancient world under the evil of Lords like sewer on the Homo Sapien species and other mid wares or the products of meetings between gods and men were given a certain amount of time to rule the world and to learn to become ethical if we could we had a chance then to become like the gods if we could get our act together and balance our various mines Tolkien goes into great detail and his index in the various various races peculiarities and examines them in the new details well a majority of the world's humans are too caught up in the various domination systems and false histories our rulers to ever accept such concepts as reality of course and Tolkien was compelled to keep his writings capped under the fictional able to aid their general acceptance Nazz you view and examine his and similar works however you'll find that the Bible and most of the ancient legends and traditions are very close in their brought out line and this good and evil scenario well the planet has had a number of pole shifts or great cataclysms since the time of Tolkien's middle-earth and because of the great walls of water rushing across the face of the planet most of the monuments and buildings of ancient times are buried far under the debris is of time and catastrophes there are few solid rock fortifications of the ancient cultures myrtle wreaths was fond pointing out a few examples that were near here in this high desert area I was once very surprised when she tossed down a map of the southwestern United States and began to compare it for me to the map provided in Tolkien's books lush valleys of mid Earth were now filled with huge collections silt sand rock at the mountains still stood as they did in the times of old as you can see by this map overlay later we can examine some of the sites and scenes they're still preserved from this ancient time one of the types of beings that was mentioned by Tolkien was the hints or tree Light Beings what I could gather these ants or akin to a cross between animal and vegetable and simply couldn't compete for the faster and more versatile beings of our world and planet Myrtle claimed that she'd found a couple of in at least their souls that were now existing in the Joshua Tree form and in conversations with them she found a desert shrub resembling a white sage that was favored by the ants as a tea mentioned in Tolkien's books on the hobbits and I didn't care too much for the flavor that the tea was very vitalizing according to her and the acquaintances it used it well persons that are skeptical of all this these views are reminded that the human has several components one of which is alien to our planet and which runs the thinking of most persons most of the time to it the non-physical world is a sham because it doesn't show up on some measuring device or it was not within its intelligence well psychics and others who can meditate their way out of this technology or priority thinking can often see the other wonders the wonders of our world that are all around them they're invisible to most persons and there is a fine line between fantasy and reality and it's a very truth that truth is often at least as strange is fiction myrtles home was just above a very ancient númenórean living site and an enclosure that looked north over the East End of the Yucca Valley and it was here that she was frequently visited by the other dimensionals of the area including various hobbits and the old-world Lords and as I visited her I heard her mentioned John Abraham used to stag dadly gone dog leg Ollie's in Mario abdun Zeppo arch and others whether these gods were Old Dominion gods who were against a free choice system of light and the Creator is a question I couldn't answer here I never got to meet them Eastern teachings usually go more deeply into this area and we touch on it elsewhere Myrtle and many other astral travelers run across constructs or identities in the other dimension that are gross and ugly in the lower planes and these were the planes that she worked in because the few others could stand the pressure of what she and Tolkien called the hobbits of course were often called goblins and dwarfs and other names and other cultures here are some goblins according to European standards and artists many artists of course actually see the creatures that they create on paper there have been numerous accounts that have come from persons who encountered little creatures and beings in underground caverns and such Tolkien touches on this originally the old gods of old bred a race of dwarfs so they could work in their minds more efficiently there are many old manuscripts on calling up the demons and nature spirits to aid in changing circumstances and there's a certain amount of truth to this but as has been pointed out that's often very dangerous business the world is full of domination now and this is always caused chaos here and in the past Tolkien's works often chronicled the rise and fall of men gods and other earth life thousands of years ago with this chaos and domination systems that are always replaced for murder and others who could connect with the past to some degree only confirm the futility of the dominion systems and the paths present and I've spoken with persons who've seen great armies of the past marching across the high desert recreating these past events over the eight thousand years ago armies pitted against one another just as they are at present I also found a very interesting that Myrtle could see the great clouds of negative end energy slowly floating from the Los Angeles basin to the great grounding areas near her there some of these resemble dragons and other negative forms due to the negativity of the human thoughts in a large city areas and each time that I was out in the desert overnight in this area I could see the smaller UFOs darting about sooner or later the little specks of light would show up as the larger mother craft opened their doors and ejected the smaller craft from great heights and we're usually able to see them in the desert because the skies were clear in these areas out there from reports of ancient rulers and records certain Watchers been observing our species in such craft for thousands of years and the númenórean humanoids that once existed in the ruins will a few little laters to the ruins of present and they were a step above what we think the caveman was even a few steps above the caveman they still had very little technology to make life easy and there are very few artifacts of them that still exist the upper local tribes of the middle-earth period in the upper desert areas would hold off invaders from crude rock fortifications there these were usually at higher elevations and the surrounding territory and they resembled very crude forts using the natural rocks available as we will see later a weapons like Spears and knives were in use for those who could afford them yet a few persons of the time could gather much more than the bare essentials of life there were higher cultures in some part of the world but most of humanity didn't want to get involved for the most part the great ma goos and rulers then as now were fond of putting go getters and harness for their own use the remote poverty was better than civilized slavery for vast majority the high desert tribes had built a stone work Forks that we'll see later were a couple of feet taller than today's humanoids could wrassle the rocks around a little easier many smaller races of course existed at the same time just as Tolkien's work explains large families were favored as it guaranteed better insurance that the father leader would have greater power and an old-age survival and the great beasts existed far beyond the date currently set by archeologists and this is another subject touched on elsewhere foraging for plants and wild seeds brought on a large part of the menu of the high desert dwellers if you ever want to know how simple it was to live off the land and nature's bounty you can read the life of Ichi the last of a remote California Indian tribe very famous many books written on him he lived quite well by his wits only a few years back in the high desert area cultures built communal forts as a rule in the Joshua area yet other natives on the American continent favored solitary rock and wood houses like these from Latin America the later Indians of course had less permanent dwellings some of the laughs of cultures like the maize had hundreds of miles of watering canals irrigation canals to help them produce food and this is from a recent space photo with a special lens and other similar canals have come to light around Phoenix Arizona and other areas of the United States well myrtle reefs human friend of the hobbits is now gone and i'm not aware of any replacements for her in the area she was in the little people though still exist in the area there are occasionally seen and if you doubt this just head out to the area we're gonna show you here and see for yourself your site isn't up to seeing in the psychic world take along a psychic friend and you just may very well be surprised what you run across out there now let's take a first-hand run we're going out past Palm Springs going toward India we turn left up toward Yucca Valley we're going down and watching the windmills work along the way and we see Mount San Jacinto in the background Palm Springs in the distance and we're going to head north now going up to mental physics bypassed Yucca Valley about a mile here and this is mental physics which is a landmark we need to know about because we're going up on a dirt road about a mile south this landmark we're going up into this Ridge area this is the old ancient fortification and I can't remember the exact name in tokens book that this was called but this was a famous fortification in tokens book this is a high little Knoll it was like a fort in ancient times where the númenórean tribes lived here this is very difficult to tell six eight thousand years of rubble we've had major floods as such but you can see the walls to some degree back of us here they had built walls because they were eight nine foot beings that lifted some of these rocks and built the rocks walls that you see here it's very difficult to see in a picture like this where these wall demarcations are but if you look carefully you'll see where the rubble of the rocks walls is the whole area is full of this type of thing is difficult to tell where these are and right in the center of this picture will it's going off to the right you'll see the rock wall there and they would use wood and stone to build their huts kind of communal fort like fortifications here now we're up on top of this little ridge this little fortification looking down northward mental physics is way in the background just near the highway there we're looking off of this little fortification we're sweeping around eastward taking a view eastward toward Joshua Tree National Monument which you must go through if you're out in this area and you'll see many other rock formations like these you're with a psychic who can pick up on the vibrations of the past you will find out where the civilizations and settlements were because many of these rock stone work areas of fortifications like this are similar now we're going to run from this area in near Yucca Valley and head north to one of the most controversial projects ever started in this part of the country and the integra tong rejuvenation machine as it was called was started in the mid 50's by George Van Tassel who you see here and this giant dome when finished I supposed to be able to rejuvenate to the human body well for a number of years no one ever saw the inside of this structure while it was being built several documentaries covered the structure in the 70s 80s but Van Tassel's slowed down the construction and finally passed away in 1978 originally Van Tassel was contacted by space beings according to him who gave him instructions and in this picture you see him beside his model of the integra tong it's an all wood building which when this picture was taken in 74 was 85% complete according to him and tassel was noted for his giant rock airport in the 1950s and here's a flying saucer convention crowd at the annual gatherings at this airport in the late 50s and below you see the map of how to get to the area and we'll go into all of this later and shows you how it appears today in 1986 now I began going to these conventions in the 60s and I used to go under the giant rock there to view some of the paraphernalia and books and such the Van Tassel had put under a little room under the rock the giant rock and the supposedly giant rock room was built by a suspected Nazi named Frank Kritzinger who dug the room back in the 40s and then George bought the land built a restaurant on the property they had an airport which will view later George spent thousands of dollars on this 55-foot don't you generator out in the desert it worked on a principle that was similar to that used by the Lakan skin in his multiwave oscillator was should have been able to attract ten thousand persons a day if it were successful controlling the resonance and polarity and reversal interruptions the machine was supposed to create a common core flux from these split fields thus a time zone device combined at a feel of soft high frequency radio waves magnetism and a negative charged atmosphere now what you see here is the Integra Tong - by William F Hamilton in the 84 who redesigned the machine updated at some wat and here you see a the electrostatic drive motor and the generator rotor configuration see the collector plates D computer control room II the Tesla coil right in the center we'll see another tests a coil being built in 1986 a short time a little later on in this presentation we have F the atmosphere collector for trapping the Earth's potential a high like an aerial HD entry ante room humidity report now Van Tassel stated that through control of residence and polarity reversal interruptions at the common core flux would create a time zone as we mentioned and by giving an oscillatory shock to the coils of the bodies simultaneously via dampened electrostatic waves injurious thermal effects on cells could be avoided in all of the multiple wavelengths produced by his device would tune every cell and every nerve in every organ in the body and this particular pictorial was done in the borderline research found a Journal box 549 Vista California and this particular Integra Thanh design was not too far different from the design thousands years ago for Moses's time where the children of Israel pitched the tent and run the Ark of the Covenant if you'll remember the Ark of Moses was actually designed to rejuvenate persons of high ethical and affection standards others who came near it would be destroyed the neuro circuits of the human came near would have to hit switch to a high oxygen based level or the current would burn out the metallic brain neurons switching to far more control and mercy persons had and their hundreds of persons died than the Ark of the Covenant and getting too close to it how did it work well it worked by the badger skins and fur hides rubbing together and they had a coating of metallic content and rubbing together they created static electricity the static electricity would run down the gold-plated or would go down the goldleaf poles temple would run through to the Ark of the Covenant which acted as a condenser they would put their sacrifices and such between the angel wings Jew remember in Leviticus 10 - says there went out fire from before the Lord and they died before the Lord this is the death of nave and ever who well much of this information of course is in the Bible but there is some that isn't the old Jewish manuscripts you'll find that the Badger sins and such were coated with metallic salts and this is not in the Bible many persons don't realize that the Ark of the Covenant was also a rejuvenation machine there are records early civilizations such as Atlantis mentioning the larger rejuvenation machines using crystals and kinetic energy as in the case of the Integra Tong and the Ark of the Covenant remember persons you have the information on how to build the Ark of the Covenant it's not really a secret information and we're mentioning it because it's so close to Van Tassel's machine in the desert and here you see the tent mature material where red and purple linen outside woven goat hair badger skins Ram skins and dyed red purple linen and all of them impregnated with metallic compounds and here you see some of the measurements of course the informations in exodus numbers in Joshua today's cost of gold it would cost at least a million dollars in precious metals and materials to build another Ark of the Covenant Van Tassel's little project cost hundreds of thousands so let's now turn from the old original Ark to a new design Hoss plans and willing to work and help me get to whatever it is that they know that get this going and they're willing to put their their money where their mouth is man how are you here to help another kind of came on TV to your camera pictures opera singer this one and when he did it looked like it was you a little sitting on the sitting on the hill over here and they want to [Music] [Music] now I understand dawn that all of this was built without nails is that true right in here the sound effect there are approximately concentric rings of sound and if you walk through here probably done all that sort of stuff and so if we do it together [Music] Oh [Music] Oh [Music] Oh with me together but I long for you study and maybe hear this funny sound that sort of the things Oh they call it all for the Bombers around the other psychics in the narrow until something else but somebody was decided so you know I am getting a strange bunch of a verdict of four vertical lines on my camera here I'm gonna settle show up because right through the top there are vertical lines that has nothing to do with the window later they find run from peter out here from this approximately twelve to sixteen intermittently every other Oh how long have you had this done I am this you had a sign on it that mentioned that the US Navy was involved or something is that just for a while the Covenant I understand was a kinetic energy collector is this basically what this is about and are you going to just hook it up to a power line and we're walking over the center and you'll notice the difference in the sound range and now we're going to leave the Integra tonk I'm going to head north northeast for a few miles to go to the site of the famed Flying Saucer conventions that were held in the earlier days by George Van Tassel and just before we go we're going to see Don's Tesla coils gigantic Tesla coils that he'll use in its integrity on what you see here is the Tesla coil burning a design in the wood used to run and design more integrity what they pop you here now we're going to leave the Integra Tong this is looking eastward now we're looking southward from the Integra tot on the road coming in we've gone slightly further now and we're going into the site the old Flying Saucer convention at giant rock and here you see the foundation of what was once they themselves restaurant here's giant rock itself which had the small underground layer on the other side that I used to go into it's full of books for Van Tassel's and we're swinging eastward now in giant rock was swinging southward you'll see the landing strip giant rock airport Van Tassel had many planes coming here to visit him and especially once a year at the Flying Saucer conventions which were a lot of fun believe me my particular desert bug there and now we're coming out the main highway and this is where you turn right after you get about 14 miles north of Yucca Valley and you'll see the mountain in the background the small hill there and the integra tone is near that now we're swinging north we're cutting back to Yucca Valley this is the town of Yucca Valley where you turn left and go north up this road about 14 miles to the turnoff to the Integra Tong now we're looking southward through morongo Valley Road we're heading down to Palm Springs you'll see all of the windmills along the way a beautiful sight hundreds and hundreds of windmills the largest collection of windmills probably in the world at this time breezes are always blowing in this area winds are always howling through here Mount San Jacinto in the background a bit small ghee this day this is a whitewater river runs for 15 or 20 miles down from the Big Bear mountain areas San Bernardino Mountains South Mount San Jacinto there's Palm Springs cut in the distance more windmills and the whitewater river runs like this all year long a great amount of fun swimming in it and the dinosaurs you'll pass on the right toward Los Angeles again going home to dinosaurs now one of them has a little snack shop souvenir shop in it very interesting and we'll also go by the Indian bingo parlor which is north of the highway going back to Los Angeles before we get to Los Angeles we're going to swing left for another surprise let's cut down south toward San Diego we'll stop off at Escondido and turn right in about five miles westward and we'll come to Harmony Grove where the strange rocks have writings that's embedded deeply far older than Indian writings in any place in the western United States these ancient symbolic writings have been thought to be Indian writings by scientists but according to the psychics they're far more they're actually deep edgings of ancient machinery diagrams for machines at least 8,000 years old machine that was once used to try to get off the planet by trapped aliens X aisles placed on earth who used this power center it's a famous power center in Harmony Grove that'll make the hair on your arms stand up when you go in this area you're sensitive at all let's turn now to some of the rock writings of as of 1986 we'll show you how to get to this area and some of the interesting features of this area keep in mind when you see these that someone has used chalk to fill in the indentations where the rocks have been chiseled or deeply engraved with some sort of cutting device like a laser device far more intricate than anything the Indians ever did on our continent and there are a number other in deeper writing such as this in the western United States and as I say this is an energy point one of the major energy points of the western United States and the Indians called as their sacred spot and knew of it and today the spiritualists have a spiritualist camp at the site [Music] we're going to show you exactly how to get to these writings because not very many people know about them or how to get to them empty that vandals have broken some of them ship them off we're facing now eastward and learn a small saddle overlooking Harmony Grove giving you some idea of the size of these rocks as will sits on the head of the rocks here new chalk outlining the indentations and engravings here beautiful flowers this time of year and if you ever get older you'll enjoy this immensely heavily wooded many many wildflowers looking eastward again two major sets of writings and beautiful flowers all over most of the year in the background you see the quarry facing eastward we're going north right now to show you the phone lines on the hill now we're facing south looking at the road in from the south there are two major ways in this area and this one's running north we're going up turning now each third and right up in that saddle you see in the center of this picture are the rock writings and the way you get up as you follow the river road down to where you see this gap and you go through this gap which we saw just leads up into the little draw this is looking westward down the road following the river the drainage river to the Escondido area now we're looking eastward sitting up on the rock area on the little saddle now we're looking right down into Harmony Grove that the trees in the bottom of this shot it's a little farming community and the little cabins for harmony groves are centered in those trees that you see down at the bottom of this now we're going southward and looking at the little saddle and the rock writings are in the center of this picture the little bald spot was there was a clue Marie one of the most unusual quarries in the country right down at the bottom of this looking eastward we're swinging it down now again looking at Harmony Grove itself at the bottom of our hill hear the little saddle we'll get more shots as we go along here so you'll know exactly where this is located again that little white spatch in the center of the pictures where the rock writings are now there is a back way in this a north entrance so to speak and this is how you get there there's a little saddle north ribbon that you come around about two miles coming in from the north and you go up this little saddle here and the rock writings are off to the left where we're facing now and how you get here is off of honey Grove Road and you turn right widen road here go up to some private residences keep going and you twist around the hill and you'll have landmarks like this showing you how I get it on the top and this is Harmony Grove Chapel will show you pictures of Harmony Grove here very interesting area many spiritualists live here you coming on Sunday they'll have services healing services you have the the visitors entrance section here and many little cabins that you can rent for a weekend or a day or however long you'd like to stay little parking area here many many cabins here which is hollow it was called at one time most of the persons in escondido know about this area Harmony Grove you come down Harmony Grove Lane come out ninth Street coming from Escondido and you'll hit Harmony Grove Lane coming westward and just see the Sun going over sitting above this little saddle horse right in the middle of Harmony Grove here and you can't miss those rock ridings because you'll just follow the Sun in the evening and you'll look up on the ridge there is the area very few people unfortunately know about these rock ridings or what they represent and many people in the area just refer to them is the Indian writings many of them know about the Indian writings but there's far more to the tale and we've given you about 80 percent of the knowledge that's available as to the origin of these unique ancient writings and here you see the visitors area as you come into harmony Grove very unique people living here many of them are see other dimensional spirits and our psychics very wonderful people they have their little worshiping temples here and little Sunday services which are very interesting to go to because they do have the healing as we mentioned there's a little cafeteria that they had going for a while the time I was here they were being harassed by the county these little tiny cabins here weren't quite up to code and of course we all know what that means more harassment grounds are kept spotless beautiful little area very inexpensive place to rent a cabin for a short time and if you are ever in Southern California this would be one of the places to visit and again we're looking at and before we leave this area one last look at the Sun going down in the West or the little saddle looking westward Harmony Grove see the Sun peeking over the little saddle very unique wonderful area another little surprise in California California is full of little surprises like this and we'll go on more little adventures as we go through [Music] the largest concentration of power or energy vortexes in the United States is located in the Red Rock Country of central Arizona there are at least 15 different vortexes in this area of varying intensity in vibratory polarity and some of these power spots have affected many persons who visited them in an uplifting way the Boynton Canyon vortex is probably the largest and most powerful of this group an an electromagnetic female polarity the Indians consider it to be the home of their female or mother energy on earth each of the other vortexes has an electrical or a magnetic energy effect and the male or a female polarity this means that each person is affected very differently as a result of this there have usually been many tour guides in the area that have known these different vortex areas intimately and these listings can be found from the chamber of commerce on this map you're facing north and you can see where you cut off into downtown and the Chamber of Commerce building off of highway 89 Boynton Canyon is off of 89 Dry Creek Road at the upper left of this picture didn't other major vortexes the polarity is different in their varying intensities you can see these on this map outlined in red the lower left the Cathedral Rock area the Airport Road vortex in the center the post office vortex in the right-center the devil's kitchen to the right the lower right the Bell Rock and the Oak Creek Canyon vortex are near Indian gardens in the upper right aside from the many vortexes in the West there's another phenomena that we very seldom hear of and throughout the West the so-called phantom hitchhikers have occasionally taken rides and perplexed many drivers all over the West alas I live in Southern California I've had several friends tell me of their experiences with phantom hitchhikers one woman was a devout Christian and a woman that would never tell a lie told me that she'd picked up to such hitchhikers on highway 15 just north of Paris both had vanished the moment she let them out of the car this was in the 1960s but such phenomena has been occurring for years in a 1942 folklore quarterly magazine two researchers collected a hundred and seventy-nine stories of variations of the vanishing hitchhikers there are many periodicals like fate magazine that regularly run such articles and several books have covered the subject if you're interested well it's the human mind that can borrow energy from the body kinetic energy and throw it out to make Holograms and this is a subject that's covered elsewhere the origin of these phantom hitchhikers Dan and the phenomena like the phantom armies that we mentioned previously are not all that mysterious to understand if you understand the kinetic energy theories here a vast body and group of men like this on a war campaign would throw out a great deal of kinetic energy and later through the years under the same conditions this kinetic energy would regroup and re-program bring about the same conditions again a case of phantom hitchhikers of course the human mind can send out kinetic energy to bring in such pictures mystery schools of course sometimes have students do this in a mirror mine projects to the brain the view it wants to project the origin and these of the other phenomena of the phantom armies and humans previously mentioned are not all that mysterious to understand and this of course is touched on in other presentations there are many other strange phenomena that's occurring off and on in the West typical example was running the Seattle Times November 22nd to 1984 tell us about a three-ton geological puzzle somehow in a way that baffles geologists a massive chunk of earth ten feet long and seven feet wide was plucked from this remote plateau North Central Washington and put down right side up 70 feet away there's no evidence that humans had anything to do with this no equipment was in the area and this is a diagram the picture ran in this article in 1984 this event took place above Grand Coulee Dam off of 155 and it was in a plateau it's around two thousand three hundred and sixty feet above sea level it's in a small Hollow probably scraped out in the plateaus bedrock by an ice sheet thousands of years ago no one to this date has come up with a plausible explanation now aside from the strange earth phenomena there have been a number of strange animals in American West the most feared and dangerous animal of all was not the bear or the Cougar it was this little diminutive Wolverine the trappers and Indians called him the evil ones or the Indian Devils they often played fiendish games on the solitary trappers the early West they could follow a trapper and continually trip the traps and eat the bait or the trapped animals and just ignore the poisons traps set for them there are many tales of mutilations and deaths caused by these terrors or skunk bears we're told by Indians and frontier zanza like in the early West and today of course these deadly animals are only found in the far north country another phenomena that's never taught in the history books the phenomena of the Giants of the West who roamed over the buried early Americas and quite well known to the Indians in 1833 a detail of soldiers for example we're digging a powder magazine foundation near Lompoc Ranchero in California and they discovered a stone coffin in a 12 foot tall skeleton local Indians told authorities that this was one of the old al-baqi giants that once occupied the American continent before the Indians Indians eventually exterminated them according to the legends the folklore the documents of the Indians in this case a local priest from a Spanish mission reburied the bones because Indian unrest over the incident and the pious of Nevada particularly hated the last remnants of these giants they call them the Sita CAW they still have traditions of long and bloody battles with these red hair giants of earlier times and there are several other Western tribes that confirm that eventually these giants were decimated by the superior numbers of the Indians and the last of the Giants were driven into the Shasta Lake and Mount Shasta area where they eventually died off according to the legends it's interesting to remember that the Indians of the East Coast say that the mound builders of the early Americas were giants and only the Indians involved in building these giant mounds were slave laborers which the Giants rounded up these Indians hated the Giants and there are many many records of such traditions scattered all over the archives of the east coast they indicate that hundreds of thousands of these white skinned Giants once ruled the Americas and there's much other evidence the Chinese Shanghai King geography book of 2250 BC tells of a survey team visiting North American finding giant artifacts here and larly ur literature tells of giants living in this land the Incas were once invaded by these Giants according to their record they came out of North America this was according to the history written by the last Incan prince who plateau and one of his students both wrote of the Giants of a distant western country and other Western finds which authenticate Giants include an 1877 discovery of bones of a giant near Eureka Nevada and the discovery of a 12-foot skeleton 50 miles southeast of Tucson and an enormous skull and bones near Lovelock Nevada in 1911 a guano miner Lovelock produced several skeletons and later in 1931 other bones were found in an area bound up like mummies in the area have been a number of articles published in the Western papers particularly around Lovelock Nevada by the Times post service the 1960s Charles Pillinger published articles on the red hair giants supposedly ran through the West in the early days and according to Sarah Winnemucca Hopkins in the articles she reported that the last of the Giants were exterminated by her people in the early 19th century a small tribe of barbarians used to waylay my people she said and eat them wrote the daughter of the old Winnemucca the Paiute chief after whom the town of Winnemucca Nevada was named she said they would dig a large holes and our trails at night and our people would fall into these holes and that tribe would even eat their own dead yes they would come and dig up our dead after they were buried the Paiutes call these red-headed people the eaters she said these large redheaded whiter Indian Giants numbered about 2600 when the Paiutes bought their three war were a three year war against them and toward the end of the war all that were left went into a cave and they kept them in there when they asked them if they would stop being cannibals and eating people like coyotes the people gave no answers Giants evidently we didn't want to cooperate with the Indians and so they died in the cave well Clarence Stoker who was 69 years of old a curator of Stoker's Museum in Winnemucca has several bones and a skull on display back in the 60s being dystopias Giants had a very advanced calendar the three hundred and sixty-five dots on the outside of a stone calendar they had and during the last sixty years scientific parties from the University of California at Berkeley have uncovered tons of artifacts and scores of mummies from the cave and still the public here's almost nothing about it today there were evidently wants hundreds and hundreds of thousands of these giants all across the Americas ranging anywhere from six to eight to twelve feet later the Indians slowly decimated them because they could not live among the Indians without capturing and putting them to work and warring with them since there were more Indians of course eventually the Indians went out the smaller native tribes caves where many of the mummies and skeletons have been dug up have been tested for carbon-14 dating tests and show that as early as 2000 to 3000 BC there's activity in these caves and as late as 1800 to 1850 there evidently been some of the smaller giant tribes living in the area where is all the evidence gone well it's scattered since official historians don't recognize much of this but there are occasional photographs that pop up like this one now this is showing a nine-foot vault was found in Yosemite Park in 1895 it contained the mummy of a giant woman and her child probably 10 to 12 feet long and the hawa Nicci Indians had long maintained that there were giants in this area in earlier times and here was actual proof and scientists in Los Angles authenticated this find of course today proof is conveniently stuck away and only the pictures remain there are many more of the giants in the Americas of course than Europe but occasionally Europe did produce small tribes of giants and there are traditions all across Europe concerning the giant invasions the remote bands of giants that evidently stayed in Europe and occasionally attacked the more civilized Europeans as this picture shows according to records in Mexico City one exploration the Spanish had a giant in his group Spaniards when they tricked across the area of what is now southern California in a desert region there and I once knew a real estate sales office owner in Beaumont California that discovered huge armored parts and axe heads in a cave in the desert where this particular giant evidently died this is fact it isn't fiction I was there as we point out much of the physical evidence can be found in Stoker's Museum in Winnemucca area which has changed hands now but can be tracked down and the smoke coated caves and we spoke over 22 miles southwest of Lovelock ever get up that way turning to other giants you might mention the giants of the deep off the California coast and a good example was cited by the deep stir which is the vessel owned by Westinghouse and was exploring the ocean at 6,000 feet in the San Diego trough and suddenly a monster fish confronted it with eyes as big as dinner plates and there were two sightings of such 30-foot for larger monsters in the early 80s and what else is lurking at such depth is hard to speculate on we may just find out in the near future besides giant humanoids and sea creatures and animals in the West we've got giant birds according to a newspaper account of April 1890 a couple of claw Cowboys ran into a huge bird-like creature in the barren desert regions near tombstone after shooting it with rifles that claimed the body was 92 feet and the bat-like wings were a hundred and sixty feet long and they arrived with a tip of a wing as proof when the article mentioned a group was going to try to refine the carcass and bring it back at least the skin another early day example of a large bird was around in the Lake Elizabeth California area they evidently had a huge bird in that area living around the lake until the 1890s many ranchers and cowboys at the area saw it and tried to kill it before it made off with more of the ranchers cattle in the area rancher in the area sold out in the 1883 when he encountered it the next ranch buyer eventually shot at it from close quarters and described it as 45 feet long with an enormous wing and body in several pairs of legs the big foot for sasquatches they're sometimes called had been seen by hundreds of persons over a wider area of North America they range from 6 to 9 feet and weigh from 400 to a thousand pounds and there have been a number of articles various newspapers and magazines there from an examiner particle out of San Francisco July of 15th 1984 we see a typical Bigfoot country he's our prime Bigfoot hangouts in the northwestern part of California a great deal of evidence to support the claims of Sasquatch including photographs and this is an actual photo the small female taken by Roger Patterson with a 16 millimeter movie camera Roger Patterson did considerable amount of searching in the northwestern California area before he got his picture and here he's showing comparison between his foot and an adult Sasquatch foot plaster cast and these other frames from Rogers photos show this particular female to be only about 7 feet tall the way in the neighborhood of three hundred and fifty pounds well even with evidence like this many experts seeing these films comment about possible gorilla suits on a human and so they go on to ignore the subject and many of the experts try to convince others that the Yeti tracks are only from bear or other animals yet there is a big difference the bear track below left is only a tiny fraction of the size of the Bigfoot and shaped completely different and the same is true the human foot above left and the gorillas at the far right and if it's persons in gorilla suits it's a lot of trouble to go to and they're sticking their necks way out there are many many articles around the West in the last 20 years on the Sasquatch this is from the Sun Vancouver British Columbia August 28 84 bill bed ria the area described a creature that he took a photograph of as well over six feet weighing about 3 to 400 pounds herring and running on its hind legs at first he thought it looked like a bear but then he said we got right up to it I knew it wasn't a bear because I've killed bears and it looked hairy and made a hell of a racket he said big howling scream I guess you'd call it scared the hell out of us he took three photos of the creature and the news photographer in this case study they didn't publish the shots because they were a dark background and the object was dark and it wouldn't show up well the newsprint and of course many experts said another bear suit story you know August 28th article on the encounter by a bill bedre pointed out that person have to be crazy to dress up like a sasquatch because he might get shot by a hunter the Hupa Indians live in northwestern California and have a lot to say about the sasquatch and they have legends of them and other strange creatures in the woods including the Tosh wish or the little people which are two and a half foot tall and who live in caves in the earth and they believe that there are laws of the wild and they must not be violated don't holler throw rocks or fish it more than one spot never carry a fish by the tail throw a meat away like a deer don't let animals suffer and if you break these laws the hoop laws believe that fish wish or little people will take hold of you bring you bad luck make you ill well in an examiner San Francisco article of July 21st 1984 Jimmy Jackson who's a who play Indian told about his experience as a child the various saw squashin violations of the sacred laws of the land and nature he told of having splitting headaches after he violated the rules of nature several times he had a consult as the woman shaman or the medicine woman who would clear up his headaches from his violations Linden's of course don't try to photograph the Bigfoot only the interested white man does this here's a picture by Ivan Marx took this picture while sasquatch was taking a stroll very young animal used the movie camera with a tripod fitted with a telephoto lens and a 35-millimeter camera hung around his neck waited at a watering hole until he caught this particular animal many persons up in the sasquatch country can find the tracks the sauce squash and they're gigantic compared to those of the human Indians also speak very seldom of the Sasquatch because they've been laughed at so ridiculed on the subject so often many examples this is an actual photograph of a Bigfoot and we might add that they've been seen for years example in 1884 or a Canadian Pacific train crew captured a small bigger foot this was confirmed by an elderly resident of the area in 1959 then in 1924 a logger was kidnapped by a Bigfoot who tried to interest his daughter in Austin was man's name and there are dozens of other strange first-person accounts that are easily a found in the records and reports and this article New York Post in 1985 by B Pitman told of a dr. Warren Cooke there was a college professor and stuck his neck way out by trying to validate the Sasquatch this fellow colleagues and the public in general there was ciske you mountains of northern California are fevered haunts for the Sasquatch and Willow Creek is a small town where this statue is taken many persons pass to this area of the country when they're looking for the saw squash now further adventures with strange creatures of other areas of the world are presented in other presentations we previously touched on some of the ancient ruins from ages bygone and how they were changed by the floods that came on the earth and periodically we never mentioned that there are other ruins in the West and here we have a picture of the pinnacles National Monument rocks about a hundred and forty miles south of San Francisco and it shows pre deluge ruins and separate chambers of rooms of some sort about half missing from each and the walls dividing the chambers are actually 60 feet and more height making the blocks out of which they were constructed correspondingly large of course the whole affair being obviously beyond the capabilities of any primitive technology that we know today the Indians in various parts of the West often have legends concerning some of the ancient ruins we've already touched on at the sedona area but we should go back because it's helpful that we mentioned that many of the indians of this general red rock Aryan Four Corners area are taught that they are the descendants of a civilizations like lumeria and Lemuria you might recall was an older landmass even older than Atlantis that was mentioned by numerous psychics like Edgar Cayce and others who could tap into the old Akashic records was Colonel James Church word that wrote a number of books on the symbology used by the ancient lemur Ian's according to most accounts there were various polar shifts or floods and the various tribes of Indians were survivors of these floods came to the various areas of the West once the Four Corners area was said to be a part of this ancient Lemuria or Telos it was a trade trade center at that time some of the vortex energy points that we mentioned previously are thought to originate from these former civilization sites many psychics for instance have seen giant crystals still hidden under layers of debris in the Sedona area in one seminar by dick Sutton a well-known New Age teacher 23 persons recognized ancient ruins buried in the area while seven maintained that there were giant crystals still in the area affecting the earth energies here and while we're back in this sedona area i might mention that the yang or male energy produced at the bell rock and airport mesa vortexes is effective to stimulate consciousness and the energies of the human body and the female or yin vortex is at the cathedral rock allow persons to become more perceptive than intuitive since it affects the subconscious minds and not particularly the body now the Boynton Canyon vortex is a combination of the yin and yang with an awesome power instead of in a small particular area this tremendous energy goes for almost a mile in diameter it tends to not only invigorate persons physically but it elevates their spiritual thoughts and past perceptions as well are always persons as scoff at this sort of thing unless they see something before their eyes but the evidence is there and the fact that in space satellite photos this is one of the few areas of the world that's free of smog especially the United States indicating that these huge amount of energies surfacing there are affecting the clouds above them and when you're in the Boynton Canyon and vortex you should be able to feel the tremendous energy surging out of the ground here make the hair stand up on your arms if you're sensitive and can relax feel it well throughout the West there are other vortex energy points of course and the western states are rich in the lore of underground cavern entrances as well as the energy vortex areas this is so-called portals for UFOs also and here you see a map the large circles being the main tunnel sites smaller circles reported entrances the little dots the known caverns and the squares of suspected entrances - is the main tunnel system supposedly that interlink the main tunnel sites the Inner Earth accesses there's another map showing the various vortex the areas noted for exotic happenings and the so called portal entrances published by the new Atlantean journal back in 1980 but I'll already mentioned Mount Shasta which is shown on this map you've just seen well known and as an area that's just full of exotic lore like most volcanic areas it does have tunnels beneath it and I'm aware of one just off the interstate highway north of there dozens of stories could be told of the strange being seen seen in this area well Mount lassen further to the south has similar stories about it an in one account a couple of prospectors followed a tunnel for many many miles until they came upon a race of people with advanced technology evidently well some portals are said to be protected by energy screens which warp the visibility to ensure the privacy of these portals many stories concerning underground caverns and ruins take place in remote areas of the southwest and I once looked for the elusive river of gold just southwest of Las Vegas near Mountain Pass spent days wandering around little dead-end tunnels and the stalactites and stalagmites down in the bowels of the earth looking for a passageway a passageway that would lead to eight miles of underground river that's supposed to be filled with placer gravel worth $1,000 a square yard now culligan the well-known bottled waters are spent many many hundreds of thousands of dollars projects like this among which was tunneling toward this underground cavern they never made it and I found caverns which once led to the river but as I say time and exposure eventually blocked them the deeper passage is off and the river is still down there to those who have an adventurous spirit there may be some portal still open to this area so now that your interests is probably off we should go a little deeper into this little story we're coming from Los Angeles and we're going to Las Vegas Mountain Pass is a high point right here where there's a large mountain pass mines you're going up to Las Vegas probably another 30 miles there's a little dirt road takes off to the left or the right here and underground caverns go under the highway and you see in this line here and you go up here to the side of the peak and you'll find an entrance to more shallow caves here been several articles on this this is coca we for Kessler Peak San Bernardino County that we just showed you here and the crystal cave entrance is right in this area here you'll see it once you're in the area this little door peak and once you're on the side of Kessler peak almost to the top there will be an entrance at this point it may or may not have an iron grating over it the ladders coming down into the lower tunnel system with stalactites and stalagmites beautiful area larger tunnel in here the mud and silt have blocked the entrances in here going down to the underground river just quite a ways below and this is door Peak which also has smaller caverns more difficult somewhat north of coca leaf and there was still a large cave which you could enter the last time I was there in the late 70s there's a rather poor print of the opening near the top of coca leaf peak and as I say there have been some amount of money spent of individuals trying to get down through this area coca leaf peak again corporation was formed during the late 70s in the early 80s who spent a great deal of money it was evidently a money-making scheme by the person's or starting it not too much work was done the tunnels were deepened somewhat trying to reach the underground cavern again the many millions of dollars waiting for anyone smart enough to get to this underground cavern have lured many many people to the area and here's a last look how will you get there highway 91 going to Las Vegas the Mountain Pass area and the little dirt roads going over to Kesler peak you can go right up the side of Kessler peak and explore the area it's a very interesting area and this area has several stories concerning underground caverns entrances to them and this of course was part of an Indian tradition where a person was allowed to go down into the cavern led by Indians and then later they blew up the entrances many many other interesting stories in this general area that's not our intention to get into the buried treasure and this aspect in this particular presentation we'll do this some other time and you point out that there are other areas in the West that are heavy concentrations of phenomena and this particular area the Four Corners area is a particular area that we keep mentioning the bottom we see Socorro and upper-middle right we see toes Farmington in the center and you'll see the circles with an X in them has suspected ancient tunnel sites pyramids or where UFO occupants have been seen repeatedly the large black dots are UFO landing sites that have been witnessed time and again in the same areas the Four Corners area and one of the most fascinating or is in all of the United States the Indians have traditions of their ancient ancestors coming out of caverns after major earth floods and coming up into this area many still feel the caverns are there we've all heard of the Loch Ness monster and other various aquatic creatures all throughout the world living in the various lakes few persons know the western monsters and sea serpents though few persons hear of the one that's in Hawthorne California Lake Walker evidently as a sea serpent that's been seen by several persons living in Hawthorne which is nearly clocker and typical is an example in 1956 the couple were driving near the narrow end of the lake they saw something coming that looked like a small motor powered boat when it arrived near them they could see that it evidently was catching Mud Hens and it was a shark like giant monster almost 45 to 50 feet long according to them struck up above the water at least four or five times feeding on the Mud Hens in the area huge and they weren't the only couple that saw this in the last few years because the Indians have traditions and occasional sightings that are printed in the area's newspapers the residents of Hawthorne are so familiar with the legends that their high school athletic teams there called themselves the serpents this is a classic sea serpent body and evidently the serpent in Hawthorne is lot of this type the lake Walker creature would be more fish like but I'm originally from Idaho and I remember ever since I was a child about the stories concerning a monster in the payette Lakes area near McCall Idaho the Payette Lake region is a resort area about 50 miles north of Boise and there have been a number of vacationers campers and fishermen that have cited this creature and some have said it resembles a giant snake like other phenomena in the West the lake monster stories can either be taken with a grain of salt or accepted with a more open mind and considering only a small number of persons tell of unusual sightings or fear ridicule and probably here only a tiny fraction of the sightings which actually take place what would you do if you saw this scene well now that we've taken a look at many of the vortex areas of the West let's go a step deeper and try to understand the energies that make the American West a special place first it's helpful to realize that when atoms formed together to make matter they always follow a crystalline geometric shape depending on the type of energies involved in each type of crystal and metal has a peculiar structure that is part of the exacting laws of nature and in every circular form like Earth there's an unseen grid work of such energies intertwining to feed the negative and the positive energies for balance and here you see a map of the etheric energy grid work made up by Russians on years ago these latest work grids show us that earth is like a crystal and has certain areas that carry more kinetic energy flow than other areas next if you'll track down the world's tectonic plates where land masses shear off from one another the major fault lines lie you'll find that they pretty much follow the energy grid lines this map shows the tectonic plates very clearly and you can see that there's a major fault line that runs along the west coast while the minor fault line runs across the southwest and up the east coast along this map you can see how the energy grid points are loosely followed by the tectonic plates you can also see the way the energy flows in a counterclockwise direction to create sort of a giant vortex area within the energy square surrounding the United States and the surprising little secret in all this is that virtually all of the high-energy people and thinkers who are ahead of the majority in originality and such are near these energy lines at areas like in Florida and Southern California there are other energies that impinge on the vortex energies and make what we might call hot spots but you see in pink on this map look at this map carefully and you will have some keys to some pretty awesome power and in other productions I'll explain how to tap this vortex energy for power but now I think you're beginning to understand why California and Southern Florida and a few other areas along these flow lines these energy flow lines are very special think about it we're taught in school that Columbus discovered America but many other histories and records tell a different story and the true facts are there were many bold expeditions that landed eastern and western shores of United States adventurers landed on our shores for thousands of years in fact and aside from the Vikings and the Welsh Basque Celt some others landed on our East Coast before Columbus even our western states have a little-known records of visitors near Denver Colorado for instance their caves that were found in the late 70s which had old Celtic inscriptions in them other caves in southeastern Colorado and Oklahoma also had Celtic messages in them there are 60 volumes of records pictures and maps in Japan that indicated Asiatics for visiting the west coast a couple of thousand years ago the Chinese missionary discovered a manuscript in 1819 it mentioned there was a regular trade between China and the west coast in the first century in one record tells of a Chinese Buddhist priest who made a 41 year voyage a few hundred years after Christ died this ship was literally loaded with Indian and Aztec goods and logs details the West Coast and the tribes of the Americas this was data that no fakery could produce the annals of these adventures into foo sang or the Western Americas as we know them is well known to many Asians Western scholars however still ignore this evidence the Asians recognize their historians put down the facts as they were and they respect these truths as actual history well I explained earlier how some ancient rock writings attributed to Indians were done long before the recent Indians of North America ever came on the scene typical is this example of ancient Atlantean writings done up in Washington State and they did it with a powdered Ruby plastic paint whether d years very well here's a close-up of this Khurana gram of his known which Indians claim was made by white men large stature and this was according to their own traditions they don't recognize other Indians doing this work at all in an ancient language authority named oh well opps John tells us the writings indicate there was a large planetary fragment crashed her 20,000 years ago and instantly caused chaos across this planet and there were many land masses and islands at sank of course and volcanoes erupted in some areas and freezing cold quick froze life in others police unique cronograph writings are near the little Spokane River in Washington State they're on Indian Trail Road and their detailed meanings can be found in a book by Health Research mocha Lumina Hill California and this is professor Upjohn showing off some examples of meteors with origins from explosions on the Sun well the other forms of rock aren't usually found in the West or from many many cultures on the Nevada side of Lake Mohave there are many pictographs like this and grapevine Canyon there have been at least 20,000 or so pictographs scratched or pecked on the rocks of the southwest area of the United States yet very few or a representative of the higher cultures that did the chronographs and the deep etchings that we just showed you later cultures like the Indian tribes in the southwest tended to do drawings like this which showed men or animals there are very simple symbols if you'd like to scout out and find the older examples you should start with the collections catalogued by various museums and archaeological departments with James Church words books like the sacred symbols of MU you can get an idea of what the older symbols look like and represent the stories of underground caverns and tunnel systems in the West drifted down from Indian traditions and occasional isolated discoveries for many years now in some instances we can surmise that the strange beings who supposedly live underground or either other dimensional creatures beings or beings of very different intelligences in the late 1940s tories magazine this started a series of stories on underground caverns and they got hundreds of responses from persons who claimed they had similar experiences a typical was a druggist from Burley Idaho who said there was a cavern entrance in his area that was well known to fearful Blackfeet Indians in the area they wouldn't go near it he said that he and friends had explored it but they were so weakened and shaken up and exhausted every time that they got anyways in it they couldn't continue had to leave locals dynamited the entrance the rubble mysteriously got cleaned out a few days later each time to the north of Mountain Pass cavern of gold who we discussed earlier there lies Death Valley this valley of course was once filled with water according to the traditions and the debris left in the center of the valleys there the dry Lakes in ancient times there was an advanced civilization that overlooked this lake according to the traditions there was one book that only two prospectors discovering the ruins of an ancient city underground and the surrounding mountains overlooking Death Valley Berkeley's death valley men tells of this find and how the entrance was lost due to flash floods in the area the entrance area got lost again along with other problems from bad luck as such there was some later controversy surrounding this book and then an Indian was raised in the area wrote an article in the spring 1948 fate magazine he explained that when the Gulf of California extended into the area this great culture was a sea trading culture later as the Gulf got cut off and the inland seas dried up this great culture developed flying craft and the Paiute Indians and other Indians evidently have traditions of the strange advanced culture they very seldom speak of of course because of the ridicule they run across virtually all the Indians in the Four Corners area of the United States have traditions concerning their end sisters coming up to the area through secret underground caverns the Indians in this four corners area evidently had their origins in different areas of the world when their original homes were evidently destroyed in the great Cataclysm they were led to these new land by spiritual leaders then there was a mountain north of garlic California called Iron Mountain was said to be the home of the dyeing stories that went underground to avoid the fatal solar rays on this planet and this was in a UFO annual by a saga magazine [Music] 67 and there are many other strange stories have lost inner earth entrances of course many of these were contained in a series of reports by Bruce Walton out of Provo Utah during the 1980s many of these stories aren't substantiated but we should while recovering such exotic trivia touch on the Mormon record vaults near Salt Lake City these vaults Granite Mountain there contain genealogical records from all over the world they have a huge staff to microfilm the unending in records there in the upcoming endtime cataclysms these vaults who are supposedly assure that the records will remain safe there [Music] one of the great disasters of the West occurred during Teddy Roosevelt's turn it's hardly even remembered today and as we pointed out earlier the Gulf of California once extended up toward Death Valley in the distant past as the land built up from the silt of the Colorado River it raised along what is now the Mexican California border and it cut off this inland seas in this map of the 1500s shows the Gulf extending further north and there have been several accounts of finding Spanish ship hulls caught in the last Inland Sea which is now known of course as the Salton Sea and the fact that the river occasionally often spilled over into the salty sink in the 1840s and 50s cuz minor lakes and then development companies began to build irrigation canals and build up the area into a farming community well at one point some careless construction because the Colorado River to begin pouring down one makeshift ditch after a slight flood caused problems and this caused the ditch to rapidly deepen and widen out till the water got completely out of hand in all efforts by local companies to stop this torrent were futile well as you can see by this map and the old ancient beach front rising about twice as large and areas the Salton Sea itself then you get an idea that there were hundreds of square miles of Imperial Valley farmland but we're threatened by this and after attempts by the local companies through dynamiting and small attempts at filling in this raging torrent with rocks and such they quickly saw that they were outgunned and they called in the Southern Pacific Railroad and Southern Pacific acted quickly they began immediately in 1960 stop this torrent and they tied up a fortune and their boxcars and frequent trains to fill in this torrent with rocks and every available freight car in the western part of the United States was quickly loaded with rock from every quarry that had Rock all across the country day and night the cars dumped Rock into the half mile by 40 foot deep gorge they were working against time because as you can see here there were whole communities washing away while they were working now at this point a flash flood washed the way the work of one complete season and one train locomotive escaped by seconds as the rock cars behind it dropped into the flood waters one disaster after another came along and after controlling this larger Channel a later flood opened up another channel left a river steamer high and dry well the awesome force of the water finally proved too much for the settlers in the railroad and they gave up for the time being then they got a hold of Teddy Roosevelt and the government and Teddy promised to back the railroad and they began again the railroad hired almost 1,500 Indians to weave huge mattresses brush to dump the rocks on and hold the bottom of the river the railroad got huge pile drivers to drive in 60 flick piles and they hunted all over the West for timbers and they depleted stock after stock finally they got temporary bridges like this end where they dumped the rock in the water and scenes like this there were 1000 flat cars dumping Rock from quarries all over the western United States and they worked around the clock finally but a sheer volume of rock day after day of dumping week after week after week Imperial Valley was finally saved thanks to the railroad and what did the railroad get well instead of almost three million dollars from the government that it was promised they got nothing twenty four years later they got a paltry million dollars or so from the government it had not the railroad stuck its neck way out and spent a great deal of money for the settlers in this lowland area the whole the Imperial Valley would be under water like salt and City here today Salton City is under the Salton Sea this is a rancher in mecca fleeing from his home in a boat and of course the whole area would be under water today if we were not for Teddy Roosevelt and the railroad working together this is one last map of the salt with sink and when you think about there being only about 25 feet between the Gulf of California and all the seawater ready to rush in on the Salton Sea area in Palm Springs area then you might have some ocean of where not to build your little nest below sea level one good earthquake and a little fault crack would all it would take to renew the gigantic walls of water rushing into this area once more and there are many psychics of course that see this happening before the year 2000 turns in this early photograph from 19 6 August shows the new Colorado River Canyon formed as River flooded the desert area near Brawley something to think about something the real estate promoters in the area don't like to mention nowadays and another little saga in the strange history of the West you
