Yes, it is mostly ancient history, although these folks still have holdings on the west side of the mountain that were once the focus of some very grandiose plans. Weird? Yes but also VERY interesting life histories. See Jon Ronson's book "The Men Who Stare At Goats" for more about General Stubblebine. A pretty good read. https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/The_Men_Who_Stare_at_Goats
