Travis Walton Abduction

November 5, 1975· Turkey Springs, Apache-Sitgreaves National Forest, near Heber, Navajo County, Arizona· United States

November 5, 1975. Seven members of a logging crew were leaving a Forest Service job near Turkey Springs in Arizona's Apache-Sitgreaves National Forest. Six said they watched a bright oval object hover near the trees. Travis Walton approached it. A blue-green beam struck him, they reported, and he vanished. Five days later, Walton called his family from a Heber gas station and said he had awakened aboard a craft. A large search had found no trace of him. The crew's reports, conflicting polygraph results, and a disputed contract motive have kept the case alive for fifty years. No official inquiry established an abduction or proved a hoax.
