Full Description & Details

It came in above a ridgeline near our home. It traveled from south to north them hovered over a knob about 500 yards away. I called my Mom and step-dad to check it out. They watched it for a couple minutes then returned inside. It then dropped out of sight. I told my step-dad it went down on the knob. He suggested I go up on my motorcycle and check it out. I declined. After about 15-20 minutes of it being out of sight, it reappeared above the knob. It slow returned the direction it came from and once it was about a mile away it shot out of sight in a split second. It's speedy escape was at about a 65 degree angle. It could not have been an aircraft as no airplane or helicopter could have duplicated the flight pattern or object appearance.

I went up to the knob the next day and found evidence of an object setting down on top. My tracks were the only ones present. I also noticed the area which was usually fully of wildlife was eerily silent and devoid of birds or other creatures. I did not stay to investigate further. I was 14 at the time.
