Flying Saucers Seen at Green Lake

Williams Lake, BC - November 13, 1967


Seeing is believing, and Mr. and Mrs. E, Hills, of the Green Lake Lodge, along with the Bert Gammies of the “Flying U” are convinced. But good!

Monday night the Hills and the Gammies, through binoculars and a telescope, watched for over an hour what were, so far as they are concerned, the mysterious entities we call (for want of a better word) UFOs.

Mrs. Hills, obviously deeply moved by the experience, told the Free Press Tuesday morning: “I was sitting up in bed doing some paper work when I heard what I thought to be a car driving close to the house. There didn't seem to be one there so I wondered what was wrong with the deep freeze. After a while the humming seemed to stop and it was around 10:55 p.m, that I saw what I had thought to be the red beacon across the lake beginning to move. I called to my husband, Ernie, and son, Robin, and we watched as it moved across the lake and began to travel on down the lake toward Bert Gammie's place.”

This was the beginning of several hours' observation. Mrs. Hills quickly called Bert Gammie and he, too, was able to view the phenomena through his telescope and binoculars,

The object was described as [an] “elongated” light, surrounded by a brilliant red haze and having what seemed to be other smaller lights surrounding it. It appeared at one time to descend but whether it was on the lake or on the land at the end of the lake was too difficult to determine. The separate lights were thought to be smaller U.F.O.s used for scouting and Bert actually saw one entering the body of the mother ship.

Later in the night, another red, hazy light moved across the sky and it would seem that there might have been at least two 'visitors' in the area,

A man travelling on the Cariboo Highway is known to have also observed this light form moving across the highway. Other witnesses were George and Ruth Gammie,

Mrs. Hills was greatly excited about the experience, “I only believe what I see - and I tell you - I saw it.”
