Google Earth Community: Black spot in Alaska

Possible military base?

Working from the local names on as USGS map i found:

Permission given for hydro electric plant - Ref Reynolds Creek<BR>

Proof there was lots of mining carried out during and pre world war 2, after that i could find nothing, however it safe to assume that the mines infracstructres is still there.

Baulloff Creek - Baulloff Mountain, i could not find anything on these however looking at a USGS TOPO Map Baulloff mountain looks to have a large near flat area at the top but then falls off on all sides, table top like. Its also worth pointing out this is the only real mountain on the range that has this charictaristic at a similar height and to boot it lands virtually dead center on our little black box.

Finanlly the entire sourrounds to the black bar is a nature reserve, which as we know from past experience is one of the best places (cover story) to hide something out of the way!

The funny bit is an agreement has already been made that if there is a military installation in the park that it should be supplied with sufficient water, see page 69:

Also its possible this is not just covering one problem point maybe two or three, however i think its far more likely that there is only one hidden thing there and that the shape of the missing data is designed to just give you a larger area to have to search, my guess is top left
