Observer
Name Robert S
Experience Level 1/5
Remarks We were in a pretty deep hollow looking for a hiking trail when we witnessed the entire sky light up blue, along with the whole forest. We continued our ride and run into two friends of our driving around the Alvin Bush Dam and they got to have a full view of the sky and they said it illuminated the entire sky blue also just as if it was day.
