I used to hunt in the area alot from the time I grew up there. I only seen it once that wasnt a flash
walking in a field and a good distance, but had pine cones and rocks thrown at me and three clubs on atree at a distance after that. This is a remote area and I could not figure out what was doing that till now. I am a professional firefighter, EMT and Hazmat tech for a large corp in the Niskayuna area now and really cant make a big deal out of this but am willing to help in any way I can. I have not been in thearea in years but believe I can still get permission to go onto the land.

Not sure but it was like a bunch of branches piled over itself against a imbankment. I did not realize
what I had there at the time till seeing the shows.
