A California witness recalls an encounter with a UFO “bigger than the mountain it came over” along Boca Reservoir near Truckee, according to March 3, 2014, testimony in Case 54423 from the Mutual UFO Network (MUFON) witness reporting database.
The reporting witness and a friend were about to go to sleep in a vehicle for the night while about 20 parents remained outside partying by a campfire when the object was first noticed on the other side of the river from where they were camping. The events occurred on August 10, 1985.
“There were no trees on that side of river,” the reporting witness stated. “It was a bare hill. This object was enormous! Bigger than the mountain it came over.”
The witness described the object.
“It proceeded very slow over the mountain and directly over our camp. It had triangular-shaped lights all over the bottom as though there were smaller triangular-shaped ships on the bottom. The lights were red, green, and yellow triangular patterns. With white lights around them.”
The object could also be heard.
“It simply made a humming sound and flew right over us. There were pine trees on our side so right after it went over us, we could not see it anymore.”
Even odder than the sighting was the fact that no one immediately recalled the event.
“No one remembered this object the next day – in fact for two weeks until I guess our memories came back. And we all started talking about it.”
