While investigating the cattle mutilations occuring in the greater Dulce area, Trooper Gabe Valdez and researcher Paul Bennewitz took a team of N.I.D.S. researchers into the mountains. Although N.I.D.S. claims to have investigated the mysterious Redding War Ranch to satisfaction, researchers have never been able to nail down ownership to anything but front companies and individuals with suspicious connections. <ref>Still unsolved – – is an abandoned ranch adjacent to the northern slope of Mt. Archuleta, northwest of Dulce, a former CIA operation? | NORIO HAYAKAWA</ref> Despite the reluctance of N.I.D.S., investigators reported seeing a circular hangar type opening (pictured) and an adjacent airstrip.
