The enigma of Area 51 captivates a raw feeling deep in human psyche that there is more to the story than we are told. That's because there is. when you disconnect yourself from your known world is when you discover the unknown. Area 51 Landing is located deep in the old growth forest of Appalachia Mountains on the tail end of Chestnut ridge along Jacobs Creek. This is an area of many documentaries of paranormal over the years. From the Kecksburg UFO incident in the 1960s to the countless Sasquatch sightings since, Chestnut Ridge has spawned many documentaries and research for the paranormal. This our first year so there's a good bit of underbrush. feel free to bring a bow saw for your small fires and clear as much underneath would like. It's all appreciated to the greater good of nature. This camp is not easily accessible and the flow of Jacob's Creek could keep you from accessing it. You must cross Jacob's Creek by foot to access your site. Once there, you'll be transformed back in time where primitive rules and absolute tranquility abounds. Area 51 Landing is totally surrounded by state game lands so feel free to wonder and immerse yourself into a clear mountain stream surrounded by wilderness. Just a few kilometers upstream lies the remains of the first iron forge west of the Allegheny mountains. they made pumpkin balls there for the revolutionary war. Panning for gold is a very real possibility so bring your gold panning equipment and get ready for the action. There is definitely gold in them their hills. Have fun, be safe and keep your eye out for Sasquatch and the Greys!Nestled in the foothills of the Chestnut Ridge section of the Appalachian mountains along Jacobs Creek. this site has a tremendous possibility for paranormal activity, including UFOs and possibly Bigfoot sightings. the famous Kecksburg is located along the same ridge. Watch and listen as nature reveals its secrets to you in this absolutely private, yet accessible camp. Jacob's Creek has a long history throughout that of the United States. 1 km upstream was the first iron forge west of the Allegheny mountains for the Revolutionary War.. Jacobs Creek also lends itself to gold panning opportunities so bring your gold panning equipment and catch the Gold fever. Fishing is possible in four seasons but check with the state to make sure you are legal. The campground can only be accessed by crossing Jacob's Creek by foot. Seasonal weather and conditions apply. Be extremely careful the rocks are very slippery. our 16 acres site is entirely surrounded by state game lands. All camping must be done within our 16 acres but you are free to explore all of the wilderness. Look forward to our pedestrian swinging bridge in the near future. Please enjoy the abundance of nature and leave nothing but footprints and memories. if any paranormal activity is observed please let us know. We're starting to collect information and research. May your stay at Area 51 be safe and memorable.
