Account

During a summer camp, four youths hiked to a small lake with a vertical log sticking out of the water. On the second day the log went underwater and resurfaced, then a wide dark orb-like mass moved from the log location in an S shape toward a relative on a float. It disappeared about 10 to 15 feet away, and the group ran back to camp.
