Occurred: 1969-11-22 17:00 Local - Approximate
Reported: 2002-01-05 05:19 Pacific
Duration: 5 minutes
No of observers: 2

Location: Kenai, AK, USA

Shape: Light
Characteristics: Lights on object

My brother and I saw what we thought was a car approaching on the rise of a hill. The lights were so bright we turned our eyes away from them and shielded our eyes with our hands. We were riding a snow machine so we stopped and waited for what we thought was a car. There was no sound and then the lights began to back up, and then dissapeared as if the driver had changed their mind and was going back down the hill instead of coming toward us. We got back on the snow machine and started up toward the road, but when we got to where the lights had been there were no tracks of any kind, not even snow machine tracks. We continued on and then my brother told me to turn off the flashlight so the batteries would not wear down. I told him I didn't have the flashlight on and he said "oh sh_t ! I looked down to where he had been looking and saw what looked like a number of light patterns that were running along beside us on the snow. Each light pattern had like three separate lights.

All of a sudden the light patterns took off and went through the woods, but not like normal lights. It was as if they were going somewhere and they did not float in the air they skimmed over the snow around trees and dissappeared over a hill.
