What would you do if you saw a metal disc bouncing off the hills of your sleepy New Mexico town….would you load up and investigate or would you pull the blanket over your head in that popular way to keep yourself safe. Join Stephen and Mark as we talk about that night in 1948 when a metal craft bounced its way into our sleepy neighborhood town of Aztec New Mexico.

Welcome to this episode of The Dark Canyon Chronicles.

Mark Little

Mark Little has lived here in Southwest Colorado since 2002. His love of mysterious beings and Unknown Phenomena began way back around age 5 in the hills and hollers of the Eastern Ozarks (Mizz er ah'). Watching lights zigging and zagging in the night sky set Mark on a path of curiosity, fear, excitement, and awe. He loves myths and legends related to the Natural World. When not at work, Mark can be found hiking, looking under rocks, taking pictures, reading, telling stories, looking up at the night sky, and hanging out with his family of cats.
