The video If you subscribe to the channel you will make me really happy now we can continue the video gnome situated far West in Alaska and quite remote from other settlement areas began to attract migration in the early 20th century due to the gold deposits discovered in
The region experiencing significant development during this period however over time there has been a decrease in the number of people coming to the town leading to a substantial decrease in Investments nevertheless today the town still functions as an important trade and Transportation
Center due to its harbors and airports s the main reason for this is the considerable distance between gnome and other major cities with thousands of kilometers separating it from places like Anchorage the town is so remote from other settlement areas that embarking on a journey by
Car towards gnome in a state like Alaska where freezing cold prevails is almost tan amount to Suicide Additionally the roads leading to rural areas in the town are in poor condition and there is hardly any direct Road access to make major settlement areas this situation has led to the
Intense use of the town’s harbors and airports enabling the town to survive however despite all these challenges gnome is located in an extremely isolated and desolate Place compared to other settlements this situation has contributed to the town having a dark and mysterious side especially
Between 1960 in 2004 approximately 30 people mostly from surrounding Villages dis appeared under mysterious circumstances in Gnome leaving no Trace behind while this might seem normal at first glance and one might think that The Disappearance of 30 people over a 44-year period could be
Considered ordinary the average population of the Town between 1960 and 2004 was only 2,900 this indicates that the number of disappearances in the town is well above the national average the families of the missing individuals have even CL claimed that the local police made no effort
To solve these disappearances and campaign for years to find the missing alleging neglect from law enforcement and finally in 2005 the mother of the missing Erica aatii reached her goal by sending a petition to the state prosecutor Eric aatii who went missing on October 5th 2004 had
Set out early that day to visit his pregnant girlfriend in gnometown however before starting his journey his mother had warned him not to go to the town mentioning that bad things happen to those who go there despite not believing much in the tales circulating among the people Eric
Continued on his way however shortly afterward he called his girlfriend’s family to report that he never arrived upon this news an extensive search operation was launched both on land and at sea but despite all efforts not a single trace of Eric was found after Eric’s mother reached out
To the state prosecutor the case was taken over by the FBI and all other missing cases related to the town were investigated FBI profilers determined that the majority of people who went missing in and around the town were males and they often went to local bars or excessively drank
Before disappearing according to the FBI these individuals likely got lost and ventured out of town due to being heavily intoxicated succumbing to harsh weather conditions and losing their lives however the real question at this point is what is causing something or someone to lead individuals
Out of the Town safe environment and a way along with these questions it is noteworthy that gome toown has no mountainous terrain or Hills in its vicinity in fact there are no wooded areas around the town this suggests that over the years remains of the missing should have been discovered the
FBI also investigated the possibility of a killer or a group of killers operating within the local community but could not find conclusive evidence supporting this possibility and finally the most famous missing person case in the town occurred in 2016 Joseph balderis a 36-year-old man working
As a legal clerk in the second district court was known in the community on June 24th a Friday he told his friends that he would go hunting after work but on Monday morning June 27th he didn’t show up for work Tracy one of his colleagues called the police station expressing concern
That Joseph hadn’t come to work and something might have happened to him upon this the police began questioning if anyone had seen Joseph in the town two witnesses stated they had seen Joseph’s car on The Gnome Council Highway about 70 km away police officer Timothy Smith rushed to the scene
And indeed found Joseph balder’s car parked near a threshold in the vicinity of The Gnome Council Highway using a megaphone he began calling for Joseph but could only hear the sound of the wind around him understanding the situation Smith began inspecting Joseph’s car but he couldn’t find any
Signs of damage and there were no traces when he examined the nearby ground despite extensive efforts thermal cameras and search dogs were deployed to the area but the dog stopped at a certain point while trying to pick up Joseph’s sent and didn’t proceed further no results were
Obtained from the the search efforts that day and Joseph balderas has been missing for approximately 6 years now when Joseph went missing searches were conducted for about 5 months involving numerous law enforcement agencies however despite all efforts not a single trace of Joseph was found
A local Court declared Joseph legally Dead about a year after his disappearance the balder’s case remains one of the most mysterious events in gnome’s history a man with no health issues or enem loved by many in the town with an extensive family and friend group Joseph’s disappearance
Baffled detectives no signs of a struggle or similar evidence were found at the scene or around the vehicle indicating he hadn’t been attacked the most frightening aspect of this disappearance is that similar incidents have occurred in the town certainly the disappearances in Alaska
Are not limited to gnometown on June 4th 1999 15 year-old Michael Palmer and two friends had attended a party near Meadow Lakes after the party they hopped on their bikes to head home together however Michael started falling behind and after a while he disappeared from sight his friends waited
For him but when he didn’t show up they went back to search for him despite extensive searches no trace of Michael or his bike could be found the next day Michael’s bike was discovered 38 kilomet away near the ca River and his sneakers were found near an airstrip however despite comprehensive
Search efforts Michael’s remains were never found this incident repeated itself 11 years later in April 2010 when Michael’s brother Chuck went missing in a similar manner at the time of Chuck’s disappearance he was part of a group riding snowmobiles near the talut town like his brother
Chuck had fallen behind and unintentionally separated from his group when his friends went back to to look for him they found no trace of Chuck shortly afterward aerial searches by authorities located Chuck’s snowmobile abandoned in an open plane but there were no signs of him
Around the vehicle what was intriguing was that the snowmobile seemed as if it had been suddenly lifted from the top because it had traveled in a straight line for a while and appeared to have stopped spontaneously there were no footprints around the snowmobile indicating that Chuck had
Stepped off despite all investigations no remain have been found for these two brothers the Palmer family had lost two sons in remarkably similar ways was this an incredibly coincidental event or was there something in the wild nature of Alaska praying on them the largest disappearance event
In Alaska occurred on January 26th 1950 with the vanishing of a Douglas C 54 Sky Master military transport plane the aircraft carrying four people was flying flying from Alaska to Montana and had its last radio contact in the second hour of its 8-hour flight after that point there was
No further communication and the aircraft could not be located 2 hours after takeoff an operation called the mic operation involving search and rescue efforts was launched an hour after the plane failed to arrive in Montana despite the involvement of 85 aircraft and 7,000 Personnel
In the searches no traces of the a aircraft or its occupants could be found even after scouring an area of approximately 1,200 km during the search for the aircraft several other planes also went missing with some crashing into the Matt quento mountains the crash of ab 36 bomber
Carrying nuclear weapons in British Columbia led to the suspension of search operations and the decision not to search for the sky Master Again The Disappearance of the sky Master is considered one of the largest groups of American military personnel ever lost the question of what might
Be causing such disappearances in Alaska has not been definitively answered these incidents are often associated with challenging climatic and geographical conditions High mountainous areas continental climates and weather variability additionally finding aircraft and individuals lost in the vast and remote areas of Alaska can be challenging complicating search and rescue

These events firstly Alaska is home to various predator at atory animal species including cougars wolves and polar bears these animals can occasionally roam in areas just 20 minutes away from towns or cities this increases the risk of encountering these predatory creatures during a
Hike outside the town leading to unintentional loss of life the challenging natural conditions in Alaska even for survival experts are a significant factor in explaining these incidents Alaska features unexplored areas like dense forests massive Cliffs and Barren Tundras
Many regions remain Untouched by human hands and even between towns the lack of proper roads is notable therefore while navigating Alaska one might encounter risks such as falling into a snow covered crevice being hit by a frozen tree or freezing to death while trying to find your

Alaska, known for its wild nature, harsh climate, and remote areas, has a history of mysterious disappearances in the town of Nome that extends from the early 20th century to the present day. Despite growing as a town with the gold rush, Nome is also recognized for its distant and challenging geography. It remains an important trade and transportation center due to having both a port and airports.
The disappearances in Nome are often examined through the lens of around 30 people who went missing outside the town between 1960 and 2004, with an average population of 2900 during that period. Although these disappearances are claimed to occur in a region referred to by town residents as the “Devil’s Triangle,” it’s noted that the disappearances are not limited to this triangle but have occurred throughout the entire state.
Situated in the far west of Alaska, Nome, once a bustling town with the gold discovery in the early 20th century, witnessed a decline over time due to a decrease in population and investments. Nome carries a dark and mysterious atmosphere, especially solidified by the mysterious disappearances of nearly 30 individuals between 1960 and 2004, where they vanished without a trace.
The most famous disappearance in 2016 involved Joseph Balderas, a 36-year-old legal clerk. Joseph had informed his friends that he would go hunting, but he failed to show up for work later. Searches revealed Joseph’s car on Nome Council Highway, yet he disappeared without leaving any trace. This incident, along with other mysterious disappearances in the town, remains unsolved, and the families of the missing individuals have criticized local police for not putting in enough effort.
The disappearance of Joseph Balderas and similar incidents can be attributed to the wild nature and challenging conditions of Alaska. Additionally, the poor state of roads leading to rural areas outside the town has elevated the significance of Nome’s port and airports, contributing to the town’s survival. However, even these factors do not fully explain the mysterious disappearances in the town.
The general causes of disappearances in Alaska are associated with factors such as the wild natural conditions, harsh climate, predatory animals, and transportation difficulties. Nevertheless, some events remain unexplained and shrouded in mystery. Major incidents like the 1950 disappearance of the Sky Master military transport plane, where no traces were found despite search efforts, are recorded as one of the largest American military personnel groups lost in Alaska.
While some disappearances in Alaska can be easily explained by natural factors and geographical challenges, others remain unsolved mysteries. When such events align with Alaska’s wild and unexplored nature, they give rise to numerous speculations and questions.

Yeah. Ur not supposed to get drunk when there's shit around th a t might eat you.
39 mountains? Do you possibly mean mountain RANGES…? There have got to be more than 39 mountains or mountain ‘peaks’ in that state… come on
Ya this is a crazy mystery that not only happens in Alaska but also in the entire world but especially in the united states in state or national parks. Although it does happen more in Alaska but then again it's a hard place to live. They don't call it the last frontier for nothing!
Hale Boggs and his entire plane disappeared in Alaska. he was on the Warren Commission and was not happy with how the Kennedy assassination was being investigated. no trace was found that I know of.
Weather, terrain, accidents, animals, mis-fit serial killers, aliens…..you better know what the fuck you are doing.
Big business..Human trafficking..Insurance fraud experts..Many lies about suicide..Fishing industry run by very aggressive immigrants..They fly in switchers..They don't just kill in Alaska they steal everything you own if your unlucky…Very nice people do live in Alaska…The Police very hard to assist contractor s in fishing..You must introduce yourself to the real community to be safe..
Paranormal Entities
Sounds demonic
I don't think yoy meant to say 39 mountains. It's 39 mountain ranges. And it's actually 30 ranges, not 39.
Stopped watching the moment it's inferred there's a "triangle" like Bermuda, the latter being completely debunked decades ago. Thumbs down and a quick click on "don't recommend channel. Reality doesn't exist here.
You totally contradicted yourself, and then you completely puss out at the end! You explained how the people went missing like with the snowmobile just stopping and no foot prints around of somebody getting off, the same with another disappearance, where there were no foot prints or tracks to go to, which would be very easily seen. They need to bring in all these normal, albeit, dangerous animals, except for if it was those animals, they would be blood spatter everywhere, they would be pieces of clothes, shredded and in obvious kill site. Not to mention, they all bury their kills after, and come back and eat on them periodically. And there were no tracks anywhere, people or animals. I hate how are you? People do 20 minutes of egging people on, and then just give the flimsiest excuses ever as to what happened to them when there is absolutely no evidence that they were killed by a person or an animal. Get a life, and get off YouTube because you’re making people more stupid by every video you put out there!
I lived in Alaska 1970s and 80s. When asking about friends sometimes people would say, "He's gone missing!" We'd just nod our heads! 😮 2 1/2 times size of Texas!
"There's no truth, only stories!" Zuni Chief said, much repeated! 😅😮 Many politicians live by it!
Alaska is a giant swamp, 7 million lakes of +5 acre's or more! Step in mud, wrong spot , gone!
