"We come upon an area where the odor is just overpowering. On the surface of the ground in this area, there appear to be a couple of oil slicks."
I received the following account:
"In the Spring of 1992, I went hiking in Fossil Falls, just outside of Ridgecrest, California with some friends. Once we hike down the falls, we get into the opening of the canyon and start smelling a rancid odor, like something dead and decomposing. As we walk on, the odor gets stronger. We decide to find out what it is.
We come upon an area where the odor is just overpowering. On the surface of the ground in this area, there appear to be a couple oil slicks pooled at the top of the surface of the ground, which look to have been recently dug. We attempt to dig down about 6 inches but the smell is just beyond anything we can deal with.
We decide to leave and call the cops. The cop gets down into the canyon part of the falls, picks up on the odor, and tells us this isn't a good sign. As we get closer but not even to the place where the smell is coming from, he starts calling in lots of reinforcements, more cops, helicopters, etc. He told us that for something to generate that kind of odor, someone would have had to bury a deer or something of similar mass.
When we called the cops to follow up on what happened, they told us that it was "just some chicken skin and bones. No human remains were found." The official story completely conflicted with what the cop, who had previously been a homicide investigator in Los Angeles, had told us.
When I told a co-worker what had happened, he reached out to a higher-up that he knew at the Department of Forestry Service (or something like that) and when he relayed the story, was told, "How did you find out about this? You shouldn't know about this and these guys should forget about this immediately."
My theory is that someone was killed and buried on government land (Fossil Falls is US government land) and they didn't want it to get out. There is no way in or out of that canyon unless by military access road from the China Lake Naval Weapons Center." A
NOTE: The China Lake Naval Weapons Center is a large military installation in California's Mojave Desert. It's home to the Naval Air Warfare Center Weapons Division (NAWCWD). The NAWCWD develops and tests weapons systems for the Navy and Marine Corps.
The China Lake Naval Weapons Center has several environmental concerns, including information provided on this site --> 20 Secrets and Rumors About China Lake Naval Air Weapons Station - Lon
