Summary

On episode 274 of SOMEWHERE IN THE SKIES, we are joined by United States Air Force veteran, and former employee of both Area 51 and Skinwalker Ranch, Christopher Bartel. Bartel runs us through his time at both of these highly mysterious locations and the things he witnessed and experienced while working there. Having worked for Robert Bigelow's BAASS for eight years, six of which were spent stationed at Skinwalker Ranch, Bartel created The Skinwalker Ranch Series, a series of landscape photographs taken from 2010 to 2016 that depict the ranch in its raw state, and also function as a visual memoir of the time he spent there. Bartel shares his documentation of the Native American connections to the ranch, and gives his honest thoughts on how the investigations were conducted. He also discusses the highly controversial question of whether it not he and others were used as "guinea pigs" to see how the ranch were affect them physically. It's a wide-ranging discussion with brutal honesty from someone who was there to try to uncover the secret of Skinwalker Ranch.
