SUPERSTITION MOUNTAINS

This mountainous area in south central Arizona didn't get its name for no reason. And white men weren't the first to note its bad vibrations; the Apache Indians called it the Devil's playground.

Among the reported strangeness are:

  • An entry into a subterranean world. Those who claim to have penetrated the tunnel tell of the remains of ancient structures and a spiral staircase that leads down into the bowels of earth. Some say Reptilian humanoids have come out of these portals.
     
  • Time and dimensional shifts.
     
  • Spirit faces in the rocks.

  • A legend that the mountains were once guarded by a race of pygmies.
     
  • Location of the famous "Lost Dutchman" mine.
     
  • Site of the Circlestone medicine wheel, 6,000 feet up in the mountains - "an artifact that could be as important as England’s Stonehenge," according to some researchers.
     
  • During the '50s, '60s and '70s, numerous UFOs were sighted around Flat Iron and Bluff Springs Mountain, which is adjacent to Circlestone. In 1973, two campers reported seeing a UFO land and then take off from the Circlestone area.

Thou rugged mighty mountain,
Brooding sinister and vast,
Oracle of vanished peoples,
Sentinel of ages past.

Val Jean Jr., Superstition Mountain (1920)
