In the early 1950's, three surveyors from California stumbled across an area of land where their surveying equipment didn't seem to work properly. For instance, no matter how many times they would try to level their tripod through the use of a plumb-bob or a level, the plumb-bob would always be drawn far to the east even if the level was reading level. As they continued their research of this land, they noticed a constant feeling of being light headed . Later realizing that their queasiness and trouble with surveying equipment only occurred in an area of about 300 feet in diameter, they felt they had discovered a "Mystery Spot".
