| Name | Shalena R |
| Experience Level | 3/5 |
| Remarks | Arrived to Goat lake near dusk and took some time setting up camp. Around 9:50, shortly after we got settled in, the fireball appeared for about 2-4 seconds over the lake as it traveled towards Elliot Creek. Flying object had a light green/blue glow, almost had me convinced someone camping by the lake was using a drone, but typically those can be heard from a distance and there was no apparent sound associated with this light. Grateful to be looking up at that exact moment. |
