The Michigan and Alaska Triangles: A Mystery More Terrifying than the Bermuda Myths
A Mystery More Terrifying than the Bermuda Myths
While the Bermuda Triangle has for decades been a symbol of maritime mystery and legend, the United States is uncovering two more terrifying and mysterious triangles: one in the heart
of Lake Michigan, and the other in the Alaskan wilderness. Stories of missing planes and ships, the mysteries of electromagnetic vortices, and hypotheses ranging from extraterrestrial beings to secret projects, are reopening the file of mysterious areas in America. Since before the founding of the United States, a mysterious area within Lake Michigan has emerged as the last known location of several planes and sailing ships, some of which have vanished without a trace. This area is known as the "Michigan Triangle.
" The other, more terrifying area is located in Alaska, where it is believed that up to 20,000 disappearances have occurred within this triangle. The area has witnessed repeated tragedies and disappearances involving everything from passenger planes to local residents out for a walk.
Given Alaska's sparse population, the total number of disappearances in this triangle is shocking, leading some conspiracy theorists to blame UFOs or secret government projects buried in the wilderness. Others believe that electromagnetic vortices in the two areas have caused plane crashes and ship sinkings.
However, new evidence has recently been found in the two locations, bringing the mysterious triangles back into the spotlight, according to a report by the British newspaper, the Daily Mail. In 1891, the ship Thomas Hume disappeared without any distress signals, along with its crew, inside the Michigan Triangle. (Daily Mail)
Michigan Triangle
Conspiracy theorists have attributed the mysterious disappearances near Michigan to "energy vortices" or "lee lines," purported energy lines that intersect at archaeological sites around the world. The discovery in 2007 of a 9,000-year-old structure underwater in Lake Michigan, dubbed "America's Stonehenge," further fueled the controversy, especially after new evidence emerged about its origin last year. This structure, located near Traverse City, consists of large, arranged stones believed to be a prehistoric hunting tool, possibly used to guide animals such as caribou into traps.
The most notorious incident occurred on the night of June 23, 1950, when a DC-4 with 58 people on board lost contact with air traffic control. Flashes and engine noise were reported before it plunged into the lake during a storm. The Coast Guard recovered wreckage and human remains from Flight 2501, which was the worst commercial aviation accident in America at the time.
But the history of the Michigan Triangle extends back centuries. In 1679, the Le Griffon disappeared with six sailors and its cargo of furs. In 1891, the Thomas Hume disappeared with its crew without a distress call. In 1921, the Rosa Belle* was found upside down, with no trace of its nine crew members. In 1937, Captain George Donner disappeared from his locked cabin on the tanker O.M. McFarland without explanation.
The Alaska Triangle
At the same time, Alaska has witnessed several disappearances, most notably the 1972 disappearance of a Cessna carrying politicians Thomas Hale Boggs, the majority leader of the U.S. House of Representatives, and Nick Begich, a congressman from Alaska. Despite launching one of the largest search and rescue operations in American history, involving 40 military and 50 civilian aircraft, no wreckage was found.
This disappearance has sparked numerous conspiracy theories, as Boggs was a member of the Warren Commission, which investigated the assassination of President Kennedy, and opposed the "lone wolf" theory. Another notable incident was the disappearance of Gary Frank Sutherden in 1976 while hiking in the Alaskan wilderness. After a skull was found in 1997, it was confirmed in 2022 that it belonged to him, and investigations suggested he was mauled by a bear.
Alaska has a disappearance rate more than double the national average, leading some to attribute the phenomenon to electromagnetic energy, alien intervention, or Bigfoot-like creatures. However, skeptics believe the true cause lies in the disappearance and murder of Native American women, as well as the harsh and rugged nature of Alaska itself.
