Found It!
I think we've found the source of the strange triangle of lights from last night. It was virtually pitch black when I took the photo of the light on Rattlesnake last night. The sky was overcast so...

QL and I scanned the entire large crest of the island with our scope this morning and could not see anything other than trees and rock. Here's a photo I took a couple years ago showing a close-up of...

Steve, I can't say with certainty that it is actually "on" the island, but it certainly appeared that way to us. We could just make out the peak of Rattlesnake against the sky beyond it (from our...

What Happened to This Plane?
The plane was at the Alton Winter Carnival today and we heard that it had gotten into soft snow and the front landing gear gave way. I don't know if it was landing or taking off.
