Tiny Mig type jet appeared and then was gone

I just reached the top of Stevens Pass and was going down the mountain, about 5 miles down is when the event occured.

A very tiny craft appeared right in front of me and as low as the top of a telephone pole. then it disappeared just as quick as it appeared. It looked like a very tiny mig military jet, I could see the wings, the sharpness of the wings too.

To be honest it felt like it could have been a UFO in their stealth mode, which could have accidentally hit a button and the craft appeared, then it was back in stealth. did not see a pilot. It appeared and moved maybe a few feet and then was gone.

I have seen military jets so I know they are fast, could have been one, but usually they have that sonic sound and that white smoke stuff coming out the tail end. this craft did not have that. Again, maybe the military has such a tiny jet, dunno. found it odd.

NUFORC Note:

We spoke with this witness via telephone, and she sounded sincere and credible. We wonder whether she might have witnessed a U. S. Navy E-6 or EA-6B aircraft, which frequently are flown over the mountains of Washington State. The witness is reviewing aviation books, to establish whether the object might have been an aircraft.
