106. Web site: La Joya Honda . . atlasobscura.com . Atlas Obscura . 15 May 2017 . During the Mexican Revolution the country was ripe for bandits and gunmen, and loot was bountiful. As such, thieves needed a place to store all that money. Luckily for them there was this huge crater in the middle of the desert, full of caves and very difficult to access. So they stashed their treasures inside La Joya Honda... La Joya Honda has been the source of legends and mystery ever since, and people in the nearby communities have passed down stories for generations. According to legend, the crater has not only housed bandits, but is also a place where witches can be sighted some nights, and where UFOs tend to land from time to time. The crater is 800m wide and 200m deep. .
107. Web site: A Brief History of the Real de Catorce Mining District . Arango . Doroteo . August 2015 . realde14.net . © 2015 Real de Catorce . 26 August 2015 . In 1778, Don Bernabé Antonio de Zepeda, a miner from Matehuala began to explore the Sierra de Catorce and discovered the outcrops of the rich Veta Grande, in which he sank the Guadalupe shaft that produced a great amount of red minerals along with abundant green and white silver... By 1920, Real de Catorce was nearly a ghost town and the trolley and train were removed Although ASARCO, in 1926, and Fresnillo, in 1937, evaluated the major vein structures, a resurgence of mining activity did not take place until 1942 when a small cyanide plant was constructed and operated for about ten years..
108. Web site: Real de Catorce. Ghost town in the clouds... . Hawkes . Logan . Mexico Less Traveled.com . Last Planet Media . 26 August 2015 . The town was founded around 1770 after a man named Ventura Ruiz stumbled across a rich deposit of silver while searching for his lost horse... Why the silver mines are no longer a going concern is a matter of speculation. Some say the silver simply dried up. Others say the mining 'disturbs the gods', which caused much 'bad luck'. A few say the mines are haunted. One local legend has it that a ghost (the locals call him El Jergas) leads miners away from their fellow workers underground and into remote areas of the dark mines. The outcome, however, is a good one, because apparently the phantom miner is pointing the way to another vein of silver..

While they were at the temple, it was a beautiful day, but out of nowhere, the wind picked up, and a dark, ominous cloud blew in…and the picture the group took had ORBS in it....
