Will o’ the Wisp
Anyone ever see one in Harriman at night?
Back in the late 80’s into the early 90’s I was part of a volunteer group that monitored and logged different plants and animals in the park. We had permits that allowed us to park along any road at any time, day or night.
One night, in June of 1996, I was at Lake Askoti, on that long rock that juts out into the lake, with another guy. We were recording and listening for different tree frogs and toads when we suddenly noticed this Glowing Green Cloud that hovered directly above the lake, upwards of about 10 feet tall! It was very eerie and freaked us both out! But eventually we figured we just saw “swamp gas”.
I had never bothered to look it up online but the other day someone mentioned Lake Sebago and I recalled that night and decided to look it up. Apparently, according to Ai it’s extremely rare and I should consider myself very fortunate to have witnessed this phenomenon!
