Michael L Lusignan, a patent examiner, was hiking near Echo Lake when he became lost. The next night at 2200 he saw two rectangular objects "float" down and land by a creek. Thinking they might be rescuers looking for him, he went to them, but found 15-20 men, women and children "dressed in Indian or gypsy clothing," who talked in low whispers; he could not understand anything they said. They set up camp and made him move to another campsite for the night. The next morning they were gone. Rescuers found Lusignan 4 days later.
