This is SO AWESOME.....I've never seen a "blowhole" before, this is at the foot of Sunset Crater Az. at Wupakti Ruins outside of Flagstaff, we did the "tourist" thing yesterday and today! Enjoy!

Neither did I Ed!!!
Otown, it's hard to describe the sound, it sounds like a box fan almost but not quite as noisy.......it puts out a LOT of air too.......it's REALLY spooky to know that this noise is coming from God knows HOW deep in the earths crust

At least seven Native American "Sacred Breathing Mountains" have cave systems associated with volcanic mountains, a significant factor in the ionization cycles on the Plateau. Dr. Doyne Sartor of the National Centre for Atmospheric Research (NCAR) investigated Wupatki National Monument at the base of the San Francisco Peaks, one of the Sacred Breathing Mountains. Within the ruins are a number of surface "blowholes" into which air rushes at the rate of up to thirty miles an hour for approximately six hours; then it rushes out again for six hours, in constantly repeating cycles. Sartor deposited fluorescent particles in one blowhole and collected them from another one located twenty-four miles away. He estimated that seven billion cubic feet of underground waterways and caverns exist in that area.
Evidently, the pos-ion count of the dry desert air is reversed as it rushes into the cool cavern system and is blended with foaming underground streams where it is recharged with neg-ions. Then the air surges to the surface and vitalizes the life of the area. Connected to this network of caves is an enormous caldera (underground basin) of water, located in the middle of the Colorado Plateau, called the Black Mesa Aquifer. At the far eastern side of the Plateau, at the base of the volcanic San Juan and Sangre de Cristos mountain ranges, is the underground caldera called the San Juan Aquifer which is so deep that drilling has not reached the bottom. These two known subsurface water collections and the underground river system have a profound influence on direction of current flows and on the ion balance crucial for healthy bioelectric states in the biosphere.
Moreover, in the "Sacred Lands" of the South Dakota Sioux are found the same dynamics-concentration of uranium and other vibrant minerals, with an extensive underground cavern and water system. Small wonder that these people have resisted acculturation and development of the vital land for so long.
In spiritual traditions, mountains are holy places often termed "gateways" to deeper dimensions of awareness of universal truths. Mountains are a key geophysical feature in the global circulation of atmospheric electric currents. Dr. Ray Roble of NCAR calls high mountain peaks "generators" of the global circuit.
Just as in the general circulation models of global wind and water currents, the global electric circuit is complex and highly sensitive to change. There is always energy transfer in one part of the system in response to energy shifts in another. Increased wind speeds in one region are balanced by increased calm in another; increased lightning in the Four Corners leads to a decrease elsewhere (and consequent rainfall patterns). The Oriental system of acupuncture points in the human body is mirrored in the planetary body. Thus, a blocking of energy leads to imbalance and disease such as droughts, floods, extremes in climate, and attendant human struggles to adjust.

(That's the best looking "blowhole" I have ever seen.)
Isn't it though? I mean, "24 miles away the powder can up and it blows at 30 MPH!"
Like I said, at first without reading the sign I truly thought there was a commercial fan underground for whatever reason but it's the earth "breathing!"

you know those of us who are "technically challenged!" 
Dennis, ten years from now you won't even be my age!!!! Watch your step buddy, your treading on very thin ice with statements like that.
Now, back to the topic. Were we talking about Desperate Housewives. No, I think it was the snake that ate the electric blanket. No, no that's not it, it was about what I feed my dog. Uh, uh, it was about what shampoo I use. Oh CRAP, I can't remember.
