((QUERY TO WITNESS AND RESPONSE))

Dear Mr. ((deleted)),

Thank you very much for the report! You may have provided us with some very useful information!

You indicate a date of Sunday, October 14, but could the event have occurred Monday night, October 15? Also, are you certain of the accuracy of the time you have indicated in your report?

If you could provide answers to those two questions, I would be most grateful.

Thank you very much for sharing the information with our Center!

Cordially,

Peter Davenport

((RESPONSE))

It very well could have been Monday. I was camping there Sunday through
Wednesday and could not remember if it was our first or second night
out. Also, I was estimating the time.



NUFORC Note:

We suspect that the witness in Idaho witnessed the same green fireball reported from Seattle and British Columbia. PD
