Two ladies, Marlene Fitchthorn, 50, and Marie Jones, 70, became lost during a hike expecting to last 2 hours. They became lost in an area familiar with them. One, Marie Jones, was found later by friends, (after an extensive search by police and county rescue teams…including two helicopters) after two and a half days, Marlene Fitchthorn was found 6 miles away in the opposite direction after three days by local friends and neighbors along a remote country road. After being found and examined at the local ER where unusual body marks were found. According to Marlene after being lost for about one day, she encountered on her path a strange being or light. She later described the “being†as perhaps a “device†(robot?) or some sort of mechanical being. This being was rectangular, with a tapered top shape on top; it hovered about two feet off the ground, and emitted a light. The witness impressions was this “being†or “presence†was not benevolent and she became frightened of it. She also described feeling somehow disoriented, as if some part of her was there, and another part of her was “somewhere elseâ€. No clear indications of a UFO craft was ever reported, however she reported up on a high ridge in this wild area a set of bright lights in an area unreachable by 4 wheel vehicles. The being seemed to be “present†she stated, nearby, if not always clearly seen for about 24 hours. She wandered trying to find her way back, often forced to drink water from a stream and eating grass or whatever she could find to help her survive. She shivered at night under trees, once a bobcat approached her. She remarked the bobcat seemed to be curious. She said she was afraid of the “being†but it did not approach her or attempt to harm her. She described it as almost transparent, sort of square or cube shaped, floating several feet above the ground and having red eyes which, at times, put forth bright red beams of light. She also described this entity as “carrying a flashlightâ€. She said the being trapped her in a circle of white rocks from which she eventually escaped. She wandered through the woods throughout the next day and into the next night. She had nothing to eat or drink the entire time and by the second night was dirty exhausted and had her ribs hurting. The second night, the being eventually directed her to a cattle road and she eventually crawled under a fence where she was found on March 19.
