UFO sighting in North Carolina (1990)
Account
Two young backpackers camped at a cliff overlook in the fall and noticed a small blue light in the trees below. The orb drifted aimlessly among trunks, illuminating branches and ground, staying a few feet off the ground for many minutes. The witness declined a companion's suggestion to go closer and the light eventually drifted away.
