NUFOR Attn: Peter Davenport I talked with you on the telephone and made a drawing rendition of what I and my wife witnessed on August 6, 1992.

We were near our home of Lewiston, Idaho on Hwy 12 traveling west. It was 1:00 AM on a clear but non-moonlit night.

We saw a light that at first appeared to be a house window (opaque orange-ish). Traveling slowly I realized the light was right over the Clearwater River and as close as 100 yds (maybe closer).

First sight was one light then we seemed to see another side of this "craft" that had three rectangular lights and a round light (as if an exclamation mark on its side).

We rolled our windows down wondering, if it was a helicopter dropping for fire fighting water. No Noise. It slowly started to rise and move toward the Southwest and over the horizon to our due south.

When it disappeared over the tree lined horizon the appearance was of a forest fire (behind). Soon (within 10 seconds) a "round light" appeared to just "pop" over the same horizon and droop down and "hold" still for several seconds. It then darted straight up to the "heavens."

In Mere seconds it appeared to be among the stars and changed from a white light to a blue "cast" light. We watched it, until seeming to disappear, for many seconds. The speed was beyond all belief! When we looked back at the previous light over the top of the horizon it was gone. We seemed to be Euphoric and hesitated to discuss this for a long time. We waited about a three weeks before discovering your existence. We contacted you by phone and you asked for a hand drawn depiction which we provided. You also suggested contacting MUFON which we did.

We were visited by a MUFON investigator named Li (woman) who lived in Winchester Idaho. She told us she and her colleagues lived in "fear" for their lives.

She called me a week after our in person visit and invited me to come and watch a video that she said would "change my life forever more." When I attempted to contact her a week later to follow up and view this video she was no longer anywhere to found?

NUFORC Note:

Li no longer is State Director of Idaho/MUFON. PD
