My experience at the Board Camp Crystal Mine in Board
Camp, Arkansas began long before I set foot on the property. I’d heard about
this mysterious place where people said they’ve seen not only Unidentified
Flying Objects, but Sasquatch, mysterious lights, and even floating rocks. As a
paranormal investigator, the thought of seeing all of these things in one place
was extremely intriguing, but as a seeker of knowledge, my sixth sense kicked
in and said, “You need to get there,” very clearly.
The mine is located near Mena, Arkansas in the
majestic Ouachita mountains. Arkansas crystals are known for their high quality,
clarity, hardness, and unique electrical properties. They are used for
commercial purposes in watches, cell phones, computers, and more, and are
prized by many for their healing properties. The Native Americans believe that
the crystals from this region have a sacred and spiritual meaning and that this
place, in particular, is of great significance. Orville and Cheryl Murphy, the
mine owners, told me that representatives from multiple different Native
American Tribes visited the site unannounced and independently on different
dates after their Shaman received a message to do so. After blessing the site,
the tribal representatives left. There are areas marked on the land where the
sacred sites are located. This is a measure of the importance of the location.
Orville and Cheryl planned to open this 50-acre site
in 2012 as a campground, but when crystals were found on the property, they
decided to turn it into a crystal mine instead. They use hand digging methods
only. No blasting or heavy equipment is used in order to keep the integrity of
the crystals in intact. Orville feels that blasting would shock the crystals
and change their energy. I agree.
In early 2017, the Murphy’s started to noticed Fortean
events on their property. They witnessed strange orbs and lights and attempted
to document some of these with the use of a night-vision game camera. The
camera caught more than they bargained for, however, leaving them with more
questions than answers. The first thing they noticed in the photos was
unexplained lights. Even more astonishing was the apparent movement and
levitation of rocks, which were caught in stills and video. A hoax has been
ruled out by several investigators.
I’d heard about the crystal mine from other
investigators who had been researching the site for the past two years. Gary
Hart is a long-time friend and fellow paranormal investigator. He told me he’d
been to the mine several times and had equipment set up in order to detect any
anomalous activity, and that he had experienced many unexplained events each
time he visited. The YouTube video posted by the mine owners fascinated me. Heck,
even Josh Gates from the show Expedition Unknown had visited the site! I
finally decided to investigate the site for myself, but would Remote View it
first, just to see some of what was going on.
Remote Viewing is a method used to see remote
locations using the psychic center of the brain. It involves accessing the
Pineal gland or “third eye” and allows a viewer to observe surroundings at any
place in the past, present, or future. I have been psychic since birth, and
began RV work in the 1990’s. Since that time, I have used this method to assist
law enforcement and private investigators to solve over 50 homicide, theft, and
missing person cases. I’ve also used RV
to work on my own investigations and to assist other UFO and paranormal
investigators. In several cases, I have viewed and interacted with non-human
entities at the time period of the event in question.
I made plans to go to the site after the Ozark UFO
Conference in Eureka Springs, Arkansas in April of 2019, where I had a booth to
sell my books. Two weeks before leaving for Arkansas, I did a Remote Viewing
session which lasted approximately 20-30 minutes. I went into a deeper trance
state than normal without attempting to do so. I had just read the Murphy’s
book, Beams, and wondered exactly
what happened regarding three mystery rocks that moved and aligned overnight. I was fully expecting to see a Sasquatch move
the rocks after hearing about the interactions that have occurred at and near
the mine with what the witnesses believe are Sasquatch. Other people said that
they have put small gifts such as balls, tiny army men, stones, and other items
out on tables only to find these items moved later, seemingly in answer to the investigator’s questions. One gift was actually moved inside a small apartment
on the site that was locked up.
But what I witnessed while Remote Viewing was totally
unexpected. I focused on the three rocks, then found myself standing on the
ground near the three rocks, but couldn’t miss the saucer-shaped craft hovering
30 feet above the ground in front of me. A five to six-foot wide straight beam
of white light appeared from the bottom center of the craft and touched the
ground.
I then found myself inside this craft standing behind
a group of six light gray colored non-human entities that stood in a circle
around a counter. They were four to five feet tall, thin, and had large
elongated heads with thin faces. Their eyes were not much larger than human
eyes. In the center was the beam of light, which actually started from
somewhere above their heads on the ceiling and went through the craft to the
ground below The group seemed to communicate with me telepathically without
turning to look at me. The entities told me that they have been coming to this
location for thousands of years, long before humans or Sasquatch inhabited the
area. The entities said that they were here first, followed by the Sasquatch
people, then humans. The extraterrestrials extract crystals from the ground by
sending the beam of light into the earth, loosening the crystals, and
levitating them via the light without disturbing the ground on top.

I watched as crystals and rocks moved upward through
the ground and into the beam. As the crystals moved past the counter, each of
the entities grabbed crystals by hand and put them on the counter. They
returned unwanted items to the ground by putting them back into the beam of
light. They were not interested in the rocks. Rocks that sat on top of the
ground sometimes levitated as well, due not only to the beam of light in the
center, but also from their anti-gravity propulsion system which kept the craft
aloft. Apparently, rocks that have been caught moving on the ground by photo
and video did so because the craft was close to the earth at the time in that
particular location. Rocks that moved sideways did so because the craft was
moving and it pulled the rocks along for a short distance.
The entities explained that they use the crystals for
three purposes, and that the crystals found in this particular area have unique
qualities that are especially suited for these purposes. One of these qualities
is the amount of power contained in each crystal, and another is the purity of
this power. I suddenly had a vision of the scene in the Superman movie with all of the crystals in his secret cave, but I
quickly regained my composure and again focused on the purpose at hand.
First, some crystals are used as ignitors for their
craft’s propulsion systems. I was not given exact details about how this works,
but they need to change these crystals out periodically as they lose their
effectiveness over time. The entities were very clear about the crystals being
some time of catalyst for ignition and not the source of power for propulsion.
Second, larger crystals are taken to pyramids and
other structures world-wide on every continent, and are used to activate power
systems in these large structures. After activation, beams of energy shoot
upward, many miles above the Earth, where ships can recharge their power
systems quickly without visiting the planet where they would be observed by
humans. The occupants of these craft prefer to remain unnoticed. I was given
the impression that these beings are from many different planets and dimensions
and that the pyramids were placed on Earth for this purpose many eons ago.
Third, a lot of the crystals mined by the ETs are
placed in strategic locations in the ground in order to keep the Grid
activated. As far as I know, thus far, the Grid is an electromagnetic field
that begins underground and extends upward, connecting via 90-degree
intersecting lines that align with lines of latitude and longitude. I have seen
the Grid several times with the naked eye, and others have told me they’ve seen
it as well. It looks like electric blue/white lines, not unlike lightning, but
in perfectly straight lines. The beings told me that the Grid is not only used
as a protective field to keep much of the Sun’s UV rays from penetrating our
atmosphere, but also as a power system for extraterrestrial ships to use while
navigating close to the planet.
Note: This may explain why so many UFOs have
been observed moving along in a straight line, then suddenly change direction
at a 90-degree angle.
Finally, I found out the answer to my original
question about how the three rocks were moved and perfectly aligned. I was
shocked to see the being across from me grab these three rocks and discard them
by returning them to the ground via the light beam, being sure to place them in
a manner that would confuse the humans who would find them later. I actually
saw this extraterrestrial laugh about it, and the other beings found this
amusing as well. They said, or rather thought, “The humans will think Sasquatch
did it!” I was perplexed, as this was
the first time I’d ever seen extraterrestrials laugh.
Two weeks later, I arrived at the Board Camp Crystal
Mine and visited with Orville and Cheryl for several hours. Orville took me on
a tour of the site. I was astonished to see the structures that have been
found. Their configurations are exactly like what professional Sasquatch
researchers have identified as signs created by the Sasquatch. Many of the
creations made with trees are obviously not natural growth patterns – the trees
have been manipulated to create different shapes. In the case of two
intertwining trees that have been purposely bent toward each other and twisted
together, this was quite obviously not a normal growth, yet the trees are still
alive and thriving as are all of the other manipulated trees. There are several
large trees with unnatural twists, and one that has been bent over at a sharp
angle, leaving three vertical limbs pointing straight up. It seems that this
structure has been in place for some time. This is a typical Sasquatch creation
known to researchers who believe that this is a sign created by these
intelligent creatures as a message to others of their kind.
One astounding feature is a stone arch that appeared
overnight at the site recently. Having some knowledge of masonry work due to my
daytime occupation as the owner of a masonry contracting company, I noticed
that each rock was chosen for each section of the arch in order to make it form
a perfect half-circle in the center. The angle of each rock had to be just right
in order for this to work. The arch is dry-laid without mortar, and a single pointed rock is placed directly under the center of the arch. An obvious sign
if I ever saw one, but what it means is anybody’s guess. Perhaps it was simply
a gift to the Murphy’s and their friends and visitors. I did notice that as the
sun was low in the sky the shadow of the pointed rock would point like an
arrow, but if this has any meaning I don’t know.

As Orville drove me around the property I was drawn to
a small shack on a hill. Orville said that there have been sightings of
Sasquatch around the shack. Perhaps that is why I felt so compelled to look at
the structure. Orville said that there have been many Sasquatch sightings in
the area, including a daytime sighting by he and several others at the same
time. A 9-foot tall black-haired Sasquatch was crouched down at first, but when
spotted, rose up to his full height at stared at the truck and passengers. The
creature was just yards away from the witnesses. He then turned and walked off
into the woods.
We then went to the Murphy’s home where I spoke with
Cheryl, and met her 102-year old mother. Cheryl is very connected to the
crystals on her property. I found two intersecting ley lines by dowsing their
home. The intersection is in the center of their bedroom. Cheryl said that she
keeps most of her crystals in that room, so we surmise that the ley has been
created by the group of crystals. Both Cheryl and Orville were surprised that
the dowsing rods led to that location.
That evening, Gary Hart joined us at the observation
deck – which is actually a very large professional stage that Orville built for
concerts. They’ve had several concerts here with top acts, but now use the
stage for visitors to observe the nightly events over the big field and hills
on the site. In the past, people have seen UFOs, beams of light and orbs, and
have even had interaction with the Sasquatch. Some people have been gifted
rocks by the Sasquatch, who throw them on the stage when asked. I was intrigued
by this and hoped that I would experience as least some of what others have
seen. I would not be disappointed.
We spent several hours on the stage. Orville put a
glow stick inside of a half-deflated ball and placed
 |
| Trees twisted together |
it on a table in the field
with rocks around the ball so it wouldn’t fall off the table. In the dark it
was easy to see the ball on the table about 75 feet from the stage. And with a
nearly full moon and cloudless night, we had good visibility. Shortly after
arriving, I noticed that there were some softly glowing bluish-white lights in
the trees and above the trees. These lights appeared and disappeared. The
fireflies, by contrast, blinked numerous times and had a yellow glow. At one
point, my attention was drawn to the right, where I saw movement in the trees.
There was something tall and dark standing there, but I couldn’t make out what
it was. It must have moved away very quickly because I only saw it for a few
seconds.
After an hour, I asked Orville if I could put my REM
Pod out on the table near the ball. This is a piece of equipment used to detect
static-electricity, magnetism, and electro-magnetic fields. It is very
sensitive to changes in the area around it and this equipment has been quite
useful in paranormal investigations. The REM Pod did nothing at first, but
after a few minutes it lit up, indicating that some type of presence was near
the table. I asked the question “Are there any Sasquatch People here?” The REM
Pod went crazy with sounds and lights in answer to the question. Orville then said “Go ahead and knock that ball
off of the table,” several times. After about 15 minutes, we all heard a WHACK
as something clearly smacked the ball with an open hand and we saw the ball fly
up into the air and down onto the ground. I was in shock, as there was no one
near the table and we could clearly see all around the area. There was no
person and no Sasquatch, yet the ball was hit by something or someone! This
could mean only one thing, that something has the ability to cloak themselves
and remain invisible to humans. But that is not the amazing part, as many
Sasquatch researchers, including me, believe that these creatures are extremely
intelligent and have the ability to move between dimensions. No, the amazing
part is that it actually interacted in our dimension while remaining invisible
to us! Wow.

Whatever this was did it yet another two times before
the night was over. At one point, Cheryl asked the Sasquatch to bring me a
rock. With Orville, Gary, and Cheryl clearly in my sight in the front part of
the stage we heard a noise behind us and turned to see what it was. We looked
around with our flashlights and there on my backpack was a quartz rock sitting
right where I would find it. Cheryl said the rock had been gifted to me as the
Sasquatch sometimes do for visitors. I thought that was the end of the
experience, but not long after, I asked a question out loud- “Are there any
extraterrestrials here with us?” which set off the REM Pod with all of its
lights and sound going crazy, then we heard the sound of a rock fall in the center
of the stage behind us. We turned to look and there, again, was another quartz
rock obviously left for me.
The next night several more people were on site. We
were all on the stage together, but Orville, Gary, and a young boy went back
and forth to the table setting up the ball. This time, my good friends Judy
White Wolf and her sister Sherry, were there along with several others. Judy is very
spiritually aware and got the same impressions I did – that this is a very
special place with high energy and that many different types of beings want to
experience it. That evening was full of events including different colors and
sizes of orbs that appeared in the field and in the trees, and the ball once
again was smacked off of table several times. None of us could find a mundane
explanation. I then put the REM Pod in the center front of the stage as I felt
the presence of a large craft right above us. We put our chairs in a
half-circle around it and the equipment went crazy when I asked questions.

Whatever entity was with us was able to make the REM react and give us a “yes”
answer, but when the answer was “no”- nothing happened. Apparently, there were both
Sasquatch and ETs visiting us that evening per the answers received. I also
Remote-Viewed the woods around us after seeing some trees moving, and saw three
large male Sasquatch watching us.
This site is currently being investigated by a physicist and several researchers. I plan to return soon to do further study myself as I find this location fascinating.
