| Name | Patrick O |
| Experience Level | 2/5 |
| Remarks | I have two HD videos of the event available. The vids were taken by two weather cams located approx 4kms apart. They are almost on the same azimuth to the object but one shows it slightly left of center and the other slightly right. This helped in estimating that it fell in the Cascade Mountain range east of Hope BC, west of Princeton BC, and south of Boston Bar BC. |
