| Name | Jared |
| Experience Level | 2/5 |
| Remarks | Its was very bright green and fairly large, about the size of my pinky finger\'s nail with my arm extended. I was driving and noticed it when it entered my field of view at the very top left of my front windshield. It then travel at an angle, down and to the right until I lost sight when it went behind a tall hill in the mountains. It seemed close enough that I actually went looking for it behind the hill in a small valley to investigate and search for a smoke signal or any evidence of what it was. i found and saw nothing else afterward. It was when I searched online, found this site and viewed all the other reports of the same object from people in the same area. |
