Darting lights high over Penticton BC

I was walking with three friends when one of them pointed out moving lights in the sky. They looked like shooting stars, except they were sitting stationary at what I might estimate to be over ten thousand feet. They were quite small due to distance.

I saw three lights that would move around each other, darting back and forth, making quick right angles, starting and stopping. This lasted for about five minutes before they all disappeared, as if the lights were suddenly turned off. They moved very quickly, and then would stop suddenly, move slowly, then dart about.

When we got home from our walk, I excitedly ran to tell some of my friends what I'd witnessed. They had just returned from a bush party were quite excited as well. Before I could open my mouth, the group of friends were telling me they witnessed 10 to 15 lights that were darting back and forth, before disappearing after about ten minutes. Many people saw this event.

I wish I could remember more specific details, such as an exact date, but this event took place over ten years ago. I should have reported it back then. If need be, I am still in contact with my friends that experienced this phenomenon. It changed my perception of reality.

Having been in The Royal Canadian Air Cadets, I'm extremely familiar with all manner of man made aircraft. This was no man made aircraft, nor was it a satellite, nor a cluster of stars. These were "Unidentifiable." They were alien.
