On the night of December 8, 1967 Marilyn Wilding (15) of Idaho falls, went out on the porch in search of a friend. It was about 19:40. The evening was dark and cloudy, cold, with snow on the ground. Attention miss Wilding was attracted to the light source reflecting on the snow. Glancing up, she saw a large light above, partially obscured by the roof of her house.

Leaving the yard, she saw a large, brightly lit object hovering near the end of her house. It was so bright that she could not perceive any other color than white. The object had a round shape, the size "about how the car".

She told the NICAP investigator that he was close enough to someone threw a stone at him and hit him.

When she stood, the object bent down and partially turned so she could see that he had a domed top. In the dome, which was transparent, she could discern the fuzzy outline of two people, but could not see any details because of the bright light.

She ran into his house and called her younger sister to come and watch, but she was barefoot and did not. Then Ms. Wilding ran outside in time to see how the object starts to rotate clockwise as seen from below. During the rotation it maintained its downward position and thus created the impression of fluctuations. With this movement he began to leave the North. When he retreated, the light dimmed and turned orange.

Check out the UFO was observed from inside the house younger brothers and sisters miss Wilding, who was tipped off by a witness. (Mr. and Mrs. Wilding was not at home at the time of the incident.)

In her written report Ms. Wilding also gave the names of the family Should and neighbors, as witnesses.

The closest object was at a distance of not more than 100 yards, and 50 to 100 feet above the ground. The incident lasted about three minutes.

In addition, it contains a number of parts similar to those described Mrs. Moreland, the supervision of miss Wilding can also be compared with another incident in Riri (Idaho), a little over a month ago.

Original news

A more recent report that contains some striking similarities to Mrs. Moreland’s story of more than eight years before was investigated by C. Reed Ricks, who sent NICAP the details. On the night of December 8, 1967, Marilyn Wilding, age 15, of Idaho Falls, went out on her front step to look for a friend coming by to pick her up. It was about 7:40 p.m. The evening was dark and overcast, cold, with snow on the ground. Miss Wilding’s attention was attracted to a light source reflecting on the snow and glancing upward she saw a large light above, partially obscured by the roof of her house.

Stepping out into the yard, she saw a large, brightly lighted object hovering not far above the end of her home. It was so bright that she was unable to perceive any other color than white. The object was circular in shape, “about as big as a car.”

She told the NICAP investigator that it was close enough for some one to have thrown a rock at it and hit it.

As she stood looking, the object tipped and rotated partly so that she was able to see that it had a domed top. In the dome, which was transparent, she could make out the indistinct outlines of two figures, but she was unable to make out any details because of the glare. She ran into her house and called for her younger sister to come and look, but the youngster was barefoot and did not come out. Miss Wilding then ran back outside in time to see the object begin to rotate, in a clockwise direction as seen from below. It maintained its tilted attitude while rotating, and therefore gave the appearance of wobbling. With this motion, it began moving away toward the north. As it receded into the distance, the light dimmed and turned orange in color.

The UFO’s departure was observed from inside the house by Miss Wilding’s younger brothers and sister, who had been alerted by the witness. (Mr. and Mrs. Wilding were not at home at the time of the incident occurred.) In her written report, Miss Wilding also gave the names of the Schuldt family, neighbors, as witnesses.

At its closest, the object was no more than 100 yards away, and from 50 to 100 feet above the ground. The incident lasted for approximately three minutes. Besides containing a number of details similar to those described by Mrs. Moreland, Miss Wilding’s sighting may also be compared with another incident that occurred at Ririe, Idaho, a little more than a month earlier.
