Go Hiking and See A UFO

October 9, 2023 by Bill Montgomery Leave a Comment

Dirty Harry’s Peak is not a hike I look forward to every year, but it is a good challenge and great for conditioning your legs. Old legs need all the conditioning they can get.

This year was no different in that regard, but the hike did hold a couple of surprises.

Early Morning

As anyone knows if they have been reading these posts, I like to go hiking very early in the morning. So I pulled up into the Dirty Harry trailhead parking lot at 3:45 AM. I got out of the car to make some last adjustments to my pack and looked up past the sky. It is my custom to see how much cloud cover there is or just to look at the stars.

When I look up I see what appears to be a passenger jet going across the sky from y right to my left. It appeared to be higher than most passenger jets. Then it stopped. It did not slow down.It stopped.

Arrested Attention

Haver you ever had something happen where all of s sudden all of your attention was focused on that thing? This is how it was that morning. The “jet” moved down to the right. I grabbed my phone and started taking a video. It moved around some more and then I stopped filming it and I put my phone down and looked back up. It was gone.

Where did it go? I had no time right then so I went on my hike. A typical brutal last two miles to an area that doesn’t have much of a view compared to other places I go.

The Answer?

When I finished my hike it was about 9:45 AM. As I drove from the trailhead to the freeway along a cement but potholed road, there on the side of the road were about six or seven military jeeps and trucks and soldiers walking around.

“That was it,” I said to myself. A military drone. That’s what I saw. This explains it. The military has some cool stuff.

Then I got home and watched the video: https://studio.youtube.com/video/D_g_oYl1YnA/edit

Bookish Weapon Number Seventy-Two

October 9, 2023 by Bill Montgomery Leave a Comment

Undisclosed is a novel by Steve Alten described on the back cover as “fraction,” instead of fiction. That is because it is all about UFOs or what they now call UAPs. It was a fun read. I normally would not discuss a novel here, but thought this might be fun considering my hiking adventure in August.

According to this book they have been reverse engineering the UAPs for some time and it is just a great big conspiracy.

50 years

Towards the beginning of the book it is discussing a congressional testimony and says, “These objects have landed on terra firma; some have been disabled and retrieved by teams within the United States. Extraterrestrial life forms have been retrieved and their vehicles have been taken and studied thoroughly for the last 50 years.”

That sounds to me almost like recent real live congressional hearings o the subject.

Subterranean Complex

One of the characters in the book finds herself at a secret location where they keep the UAPs or at least one. They all use “hoverboards” to get around. People are cleared or not for something called “Cosmic Clearance.” They get to see the good stuff.

Do you think all UFOs are drones? In this book they call them ARVs and they are “ours.” Maybe reverse engineered.

This is a novel of course so the plot continues to take you on a little Sci Fi trip. It even imagines a future where we are just one big happy family.

Go Hiking And See A UFO

November 30, 2019 by Bill Montgomery Leave a Comment

Well, if you don’t get into the mountains there is much less chance you will see anything. Now, if you are snickering or rolling your eyes right now, check out the Joe Rogan podcast number 1361 with Cmdr. David Fravor and Jeremy Corbell. Now that you have listened to that, I will continue.

Oh, you don’t have the time to listen to it? Ok, let’s just think about all this.

The Media and UFOs

Recently I was listening to David Sinclair discuss his findings in the area of anti-aging. Some of the things he talks about are amazing. Then I heard a radio newscast discussing his book, laughing and joking about it. Of course, they do the same thing with the subject of UFOs.

The other extreme is Coast to Coast. Listen to George Nori. He took over where Art Bell left off. There you will not only hear credible stories but crazy nut cases as well. It is great entertainment.

Mountains and UFOs

The first reported sighting of a UFO was over Mt Rainier in the 50s. UFOs like to fly over mountains. Those green guys probably just like the view.

If you hike in the dark as I do, well before sunrise you can see all sorts of things up in the sky that you don’t see during the day. Even if you just hike during the day, keep an eye on the sky, because you never know what might show up.

My Experience

Yes, I saw something that I have never been able to explain. It was years ago at Lake Wenatchee, at night. I was lying on the beach, sober, looking up at the stars. I saw a couple of satellites move across the sky and then I saw something amazing. From four different directions, these white, star-like objects converged on an imaginary point. When they all met in the middle they immediately went back out away from the center. Each one probably just kept going the same direction. They all disappeared. Oh, how fast? Very fast! I have never been able to explain it or have anyone else explain it to me.

As Joe Rogan and others have said, “We are not alone.”
