Declassified UFO / UAP Document
Mount Fisher "Star"
AI-Generated Summary
This document is a first-hand account by Len Blake regarding a 1957 sighting of a reddish, moving object near Mt. Fisher, British Columbia. It provides a personal narrative of the event as experienced by two climbers.
In October 1957, Len Blake and Herb Christie, both 18 years old, were attempting to climb Mt. Fisher in the main chain of the Canadian Rockies. After becoming stranded approximately one hundred yards from the summit, the two men managed to descend the cliffs as night fell. Upon reaching a rock-slide at the base of the cliffs, they sat down to rest. During this time, Blake observed an unusually large, reddish object resembling a star above the horizon. He brought the object to the attention of his companion. After a few minutes, the object began to move, initially at a slow pace, before accelerating and dropping at a 45-degree angle behind the horizon. Following the descent, a red glow was visible at the location where the object had dropped. The account was later published in the July-August 1958 issue of Flying Saucers.
I noticed an unusually large and reddish "star" above the horizon, and brought it to the attention of my companion. A few minutes afterward, it began to move, slowly at first, then with increasing speed, dropping at a 45° angle behind the horizon.
