Not Man Made. Way toooooo Big. No Sound. No wave of air after it passed. I felt visited and very lucky.

Uncertain about exact time, since we did not have watches, but it was after 9:00 pm and before midnight. Maybe one of the other witnesses recalls the time.

We were Above Highway 2 At the Scenic hot springs on this cold clear night of friday Nov 14,1997. I saw lights below us in the distance toward monroe area and said "oh look, fireworks", as the lights were many and obscured by tree branches in the foreground. Then the lights continued coming up the valley toward stevens pass, out in the open sky. at first i thought maybe a cluster of helicopters with huge lights flying in formation, however there was no sound. as the moving lights continued getting closer and were more at what seemed the elevation where we were, they appeared as two parallel rows with the upper row protruding ahead of the lower row of lights, and the front of each row appearing a little brighter. (These images were captured in the Puget sound area on camera and reported on local TV news channels, which was all over the news when we returned home) From the puget sound area, the lights appeared yellowish orange. From our view point in the moun! tains, above the pollution, the lights were clear white. We kept our eyes on the lights, questioning what we were witnessing, having nothing in our memory to compare it with. as it got closer, it appeared as though each row of lights were actually on two circular planes, with each light source identical to the other. each light source may have been in size between 1-3 football fields, projecting the light forward a distance, where it then reflected back from whatever it was shinning against, and beyond the origin of the light source. there were hundreds of lights, all the same. the craft spanned beyond the mountain tops on both sides of the valley through which highway 2 runs, leading us to believe it could have been 2-3 miles in diameter. It blocked out the starry sky, but the moon did not reflect on any surface of the craft. No out line or shape was obvious to detect. Only the lights in a circular formation, on two planes. When it was directly overhead, it rotated an! d continued its travel toward the east as it disappeared behin! d us ove r and beyond the mountains.

There were 5 in our group that saw this, along with other attendees at the hot springs. We were able to stop them from yelling "beam me Up Scotty" and "Aliens, Aliens" only for 2-3 seconds, since we were trying to determine if there was any noise. We could not detect any sound, nor was there any displacement of air after it passed. If anyone else were to tell me of this i may have difficulty believing them. Having witnessed it myself it is undeniable. Space junk my ass. Meteor shower that came three days early. LOL these were two of the fake news excuses for the government not having detected this on any of their systems. Eyewitnesses that called in that night with references to a UFO were either on drugs or crazies and were cut off.

Hope this is helpful and of interest.

Please do not release my address. Name is ok.

NUFORC Note:
