Yellowhead Highway UFO

Near Valemount, BC - Summer 1963

Canadian UFO Report. No. 13, 1972-73. p. 36.


Sir:

I have been an avid follower of UFO reports over the past 10 years. I would like to tell you about an experience that happened to me and two friends of mine several years ago.

It was the summer of 1963. My friends and I were travelling north on the old Yellowhead road. We had been going about 60 or 70 m.p.h. when an object appeared to the left of us about 100 yards ahead and just above the trees. It was travelling from west to east and much slower than any plane could.

As the object passed in front of us, it seemed as if our car had suddenly powered out and came almost to a dead stop even though the driver tried pumping the accelerator. As the object passed by, the car seemed to regain its power and function normally.

The object was discus-shaped, as near as any of us could tell, and seemed to have a sort of bluish hue to it. The time was 11 or 12 at night, the sky was very clear, there was little or no traffic on this section of the road. The object would appear to have been about 50 or 60 feet in diameter and possibly 8 to 10 feet thick, tapering to the edges, although this was not too clear.

It would be interesting to know if anyone else in this area has had similar experiences and exchange a few notes on the subject. I truly believe UFOs do not originate from our earth and must be intelligently controlled from perhaps another planet. I would appreciate hearing from your readers.
