Late one June 2011 afternoon local resident Richard Perry was driving down to a Babine Lake cabin to take his kids out and teach them survival techniques.

He showed them how to trap and how to shoot and skin beavers.

It was an afternoon just like any other, until Perry saw something in the sky that surprised him.

The object, that Perry said could only be described as an unidentified flying object (UFO), was hovering in the sky. He said it was travelled from South to North and was spotted at the 67 kilometre mark on Augier Road.

Perry said the object appeared to have a green circle shaped 'shield' around it.

"First it was moving slowly, then hovering, then it quickly moved North," he said.

Quick thinking Perry, grabbed his camera and snapped a photo of the object.

"I wasn't scared, just surprised. The only thing I am scared of out there is running into grizzly bear cubs," he said.

Perry said he did not report the sighting to anyone at the time. "I didn't know who to report it to ... I am just a hunter and trapper ... I don't know anything about all that stuff," he said.

This is not his first run in with a unidentified flying object. A number of years earlier, Perry and his friend Ronnie Alec also witnessed a similar UFO in 亚洲天堂 Lake.

Alec said, "The other one we saw was when there was the Redwood store in village. There were three of them in the sky and was spinning with flashing lights. They all went off in different directions. A lot of people saw them that night .. a lot of people came out of the store and were looking at them."

Alec too had also been witness to the strange and unusual, when about three years ago he was out and about, not too far from 亚洲天堂 Lake.

"There was a beautiful sunset and I was just looking ... then I saw this thing. It was about 6'4" tall and black ... very black with long hair and was moving across the track in front of me like a big ape."

"I stopped and couldn't believe what I saw ... within five seconds it was gone in the bush. It gave me goose bumps. I have never spoken about this before because I am sure no one will believe me

Perry and Alec say that after their experiences they always carry their cameras with them ... just in case.

"That's why I have this picture," Perry said.

"I think we see these things because we always drive around ... we have to go outdoors and so many people these days spend too much time on Facebook, at the computer or watching TV, We go out an about together exploring. I have a cabin at Babine Lake near Donald's Landing. At night time too I am always looking up at the sky," Alec said.

"I want to buy a video camera ... that way I can record everything so that people can really see ... we don't always see things, but I want to be ready if we ever see anything again," Perry added.
