Vehicle contact in Colorado (1978)

1978 night Colorado

Account

A multi-generational family holding a reunion camp at Wellington Lake in 1978 reported overnight disturbances throughout the camp. A camper trailer with sleeping grandparents was rocked so violently the hitch bent, and occupants clung to bunks to avoid being thrown out. A large wooden canoe requiring four men to carry was picked up and thrown about thirty feet, crashing loudly enough for the whole camp to hear.
