What's the real story on these mts? Was watching a show on TV and some weird things coming out of them. Now that we have so many Aussie friends on the forum I can get the real answers. I also googled them but is any of these mysteries true? :magnify:
 

The only Black Mountain I can think of is the one overlooking Canberra. There's some pretty weird stuff comes out of there.

More info needed Pappy. Oh, and don't believe everything you see on some of those expose shows, especially about OZ.

Canberra is our capital city and Black Mountain has a communications tower cum restaurant from which you can overlook the city.

PS: It's not really a mountain. We don't have many mountains in Australia and the highest is about 7,000 feet, hence our exemplary flying safety record.. ;)
 
Okay. Found it, and did some quick research. I think I saw something about this years ago.
Think the one you saw might (probably) be a shock/horror beat-up production.

Nothing too weird needs to happen for people to go missing there. It's built like a house of cards with chasms and shifting rocks. Full of huge rock pythons which might also account for a couple of vanishments. It's also full of the big Fruit Bats (Flying Foxes) which would account for the reported hellish stink and the creepy movements and noises.

The aborigines didn't have to be psychic to keep well away from the place, they probably got tired of their relatives disappearing in there too. Some of their legends are pure bs but a lot have a pretty good reason at the base of them.

Some links: Note this first one, which seems fairly level on the surface is written by some Fortean researcher. (Paranormal studies.) you judge.

This is the more down to earth official Nat. Parks rundown on it.

[h=2]Staying safe[/h]
  • Do not risk injury by venturing onto the boulder field—people have been injured and have died trying to climb Black Mountain.
  • Wear a hat, sunglasses, long-sleeved shirt and sunscreen, even on cloudy days, to avoid sunburn.
For more information, please read the guidelines on safety in parks and forests.

It's dangerous, not spooky. ... sorry 'bout that.
