The Bales Brothers · Saturday, May 16 · 10 a.m.
UFO Witnesses, Northern Idaho, September 2000
While on an overnight hunting trip, four men witnessed an enormous, silent, triangular object hovering 200 feet above them. Soon after, they filed a report with the National UFO Reporting Center, part of which reads: "My brother and I ... like to think we are normal, educated, businesspeople. ... We all have excellent eyesight. This was also a 'dry' camp. Although this exceeded the limits of our known comprehension we felt privileged to have witnessed this most incredible piece of equipment." Two of these eyewitnesses will relate their incredible experience.
