The S in FFSH is circled too, if you look hard.

Edit--A good topic to read, I think: http://www.tpub.com/inteng/7f.htm

This gets better and better for me, I also live in Minnesota! However, for some reason the latest STIES updates have not been visable on my Mac. Can somebody upload a downloadable copy of this map? Anyone else have this problem?

But if the numbers aren't coordinates, then what do they mean? And what is that sign before "FFSH"? Is it a letter? Looks almost like an "H" but with a squiggly thing at the bottom. Razz

Videodrome mentioned the state hospital for the insane cemetery that is in the same area and that drawing looks something like cemetery plots with headstones.

Maybe there's something at the cemetery in the 3rd row. I don't know if they would usually leave clues at cemeteries, but the movie crew spent a few nights here in Weirton shooting scenes at a local cemetery, so...who knows?


Hm.. I'm looking at the overlay and I'm not why someone would draw headstones segmented like that. It also kind of looks like windows in a tower.. though that's reaching.

CAVE SYSTEMS ? on the map ?

could the red markings, be refering to a cave system underground ?

the marking in the top right corner, could be a diagram of the cave system showing caves with tunnels and maybe the 3rd refers to the entrance ?

the other markings showing a tunnel undeground snaking along to the left, intersecting some cavess.

it would tie in with what we know

OR maybe the diagram in the top left corner, is of an underground base, looking at it like an intersection, does that make sense ?

Can those numbers be related to the numbers from the trailer?
I'm talking about the numbers we found after the crash and, as far as i know, we still don't know their meaning.

There are not any caves (that I know of) in that part of Minnesota. Most of Minnesota was highly glaciated, I would expect to find caves in the "driftless area"

maybe then its a secret base ?
i remember watching the trapped chilean miners, and it showed a drawing of the tunnel system, which made me think of this.
could they be man made then ?

If I am not mistaken, the various buildings associated with that hospital are connected by a tunnel system.

1. can also be Fergus Falls Senior High school
2. those numbers might be a location of the book in the library (either hospital or school)
so i think if there is someone living in the area he should go and check... i don't believe they'll upload an entire book.

I would have done it, but i live on a different continent Sad

These are the best I could do! I still can't really tell if that's a 1, 7, or 9 before the 1.89..
