Descant, in a dark foggy night those red mountain top lights can be out of view. The one and only night we ever got lost on the lake you could not see your hand in front of your face. It is just a miracle we made it home. We have no idea how we did or where we were until I finally spotted the end of Tuftonboro Neck by Wingate Cove. I think there were about 12 of us on the boat and we had gone through the Gov. Island Bridge and were going to come back on the other side of GIB. Just as we went under the bridge, it started to pour and the lightening and thunder started. We think we might have ended up going between all the islands but to this day we don't know. It is a miracle we never hit something but we did have somebody sitting on the front of the boat, so if a buoy came up we could see it. I have been on the lake my whole life and that was the only time we ever got lost.
