Kell,
The Waunaque Vortex is something altogether unique as far as "vortices" are concerned. I think that I first recall hearing about it from the Fox Family television program, "Real Scary Stories." Apparently, the site was considered to be very sacred ground to the indigenous American Indian tribes in the area and became taboo because it was considered the domain of spirits.
During the time between the World Wars, a munitions complex was built on the site by the government. An accident of unknown origins triggered some massive explosions that levelled the facility, killing scores of factory workers in the process. Since that time, the vortex has been considered a very haunted place.
But, what sets this site apart from all the other known vortices is just the sheer amount of unusual phenomenon tied into it...ghosts, UFOs, government conspiracies, and all the stuff previously mentioned. And, it is unusual that photographic results are pulled out of it time and time again.
In particular, I have found a lot of information posted to the web by a mysterious figure calling himself Sargel18. The impression he gives me is that he is a UFOlogist of sorts, but many of his photos appeals to my interests in the ghostly end of things. He had produced tons of orbs, mists, rods, streaming energy, and even an apparition of a female spirit ringing a small bell! And, he has his share of "demons" and extraterrestial life forms as well to show....
To the best of my knowledge, no other 'natural' vortice has either the amount or the variety of phenomenon present as Waunaque. Having grown up in Montana, I am most familiar with the Flathead vortex....the swirling natural energies here have bent trees over to mirror the flow and it is incredibly easy for visitors to become somewhat disoriented while on site. I have never heard of any ghost stories attached to the site, but I have heard of UFO reports in the area....but, that isn't too surprising considering the number of missle silos in the area. ET has a thing for looking into things that make a big boom when they go off. =O!
I still have to pull up all the bookmarks, but a search of the web for Sargel18 might turn up some of his work...some of it is rather obscurely placed because of "government interest" in his studies. I know that the Phantom or Fraud? site out of the UK has some of the Waunaque Vortex material there, as well as some of the paranormal links pages....so, I don't know Kell. Have a look around and compare and contrast them with the reports you have about Sedona and Oregon. ;-)
