Phou Pha Thi (Phathi) is a "Sacred Mountain" in Laos "believed…inhabited by great “phi”, or spirits" and used for the clandestine Lima Site 85 military installation during the Vietnam War. The installation was defeated in the March 10–11, 1968, Battle of Lima Site 85 and from 1994-2004, searches for USAF remains were successfully conducted at the mountain. The mountain is "100 miles south of Dien Bien Phu, 160 miles west of Hanoi, and just 25 miles from the PL capital of Samneua".
