APRO Files


WITNESS:
Arthur Gilbert    AGE: 30-ish    OCCUPATION: Project Accountant

LOCATION: 5 miles south of Quesnel, British Columbia, Canada.

DATE: July 11, 1967     TIME: 11:40 p.m.

OBJECT SIGHTED: Systematic on and off Blinking Lights. No real sighting of UFO as the general term implies, but nonetheless something which I, as an observer, cannot explain.

Light (white in colour), on for approximately 1/2 second, off for 1/2 second - on 1/2 sec., then off for perhaps 2 - 3 - 4 - 5 sec. Again on for the same intervals as above. This sequence was repeated four times across the southern sky at an altitude of approximately 2000 to 3000 ft. above sea level (relative height because it came from behind a local prominent mountain) - (Dragon Mt., 4101').

Estimated (a real guess) 5 to 10 miles distant. No clouds in sky; no sound heard at all. Travelled across almost all of southern sky, as I was sitting on lake shore with 1/4 to 1/2 mile of water before me.

Also sighted (obtained from Province paper) in Cache Creek area the same evening.

Not reported to any publication by me.
