Prince George
Three unrelated witnesses in British Columbia reported a round object radiating a yellow-orange light, apparently climbing from 2,000 to 10,000 feet in the late afternoon.
The record
Three independent witnesses with no apparent connection to each other is the strongest part of this report, and the apparent climb is the detail that most distinguishes a disc from a balloon.
It is included to keep the west in the record: almost every well-documented Canadian case is eastern, and that skew is a property of the archive rather than of the sky.
Sourcing is thin and no original file has been located. UFO*BC maintains a separate history index for British Columbia material.
Thin sourcing — verify before citing
This case is included because gaps are worse than thin records, but the sourcing is partial. Do not build on it without reading the original file.
