| Name | Jean J |
| Experience Level | 1/5 |
| Remarks | My husband and I both saw this as we were driving south from the south entrance of Crater Lake, at dusk. Looked very bright, shaped like an arrow head, no trail, no sound. Looked like it would hit the earth. Startling, unlike anything we'd ever seen. Moved from west to east and downward. We were south of Crater Lake, north of Ft. Klamath. |
