Mysterious orange lights spotted rising above Mt. Equinox

We went out to the town rec. center around 11:30 pm on 11/21/12. There were no lights on there, and the sky was clear. We could see Equinox mountain not far in the distance and lights on the mountain (houses). A bright orange light appeared about halfway down the mountain and slowly rose up. It continued up over the horizon and then went to the right and faded. Sometimes the speed was slow and hard to distinguish from the houses, other times it was very noticeable. I saw 1 or 2 more lights shortly after. The next night we went to one of the best views in town and could see the whole mountain. Again, we saw the lights. We returned to this view the following night and saw 2 of the lights, moving noticeably faster. Had to leave town the next day to return to college. None of us own cameras capable of capturing proof.
