Summary : Late in the evening, just before retiring, A luminous object was spotted just above a mountain, and in between two trees. It appeared to be one mile to the south/southeast of the campground. It remained 'flickering' in a cross pattern, until I signaled with a flashlight, which caused it to abruptly change its pattern and speed; changing its location extremely quickly. and then coming back to its original spot and remain flickering once again. just above the mountain.
The object appeared to be of a spherical shape, maybe 15-20ft across, from where it was observed. The object 'flickered' rapidly and it moved in a tight, 'tic tac toe' like movement, intensifying in luminensce as it moved. After 30 min. object was 'signaled' with a small flashlight, to which the object reacted by flashing brighter and moving even more erratically; much faster and farther. After, it would come back to its original position. There were no changes in color,as far as the light is concerned. I watched for about 2 hrs until I became extremely tired, even though I was very interested, and slept.
