Location: Mount Shasta, CA, USA

Shape: Light

A light over Mt Shasta that went within itself.

A light that went within itself?

The light lit up the entire face of the mountain. So I can't say it was a ship, its beyond any concept of a ship. As I sat on Mt Shasta at the highest parking lot around midnight, I was with another man who was star gazing when I arrived. We both looked up at the peak of the mountain, and suddenly, within a split second, a circle of light came on and off, what appeared to be perhaps 1000ft above the peak, in that split second, it totally lit up the entire face of the mountain, no shadows, and went off just as quickly. What was strange, I remember that when it went off, "it went within itself", swallowed itself? I know it sounds strange, but I've not told anyone but my wife. All I know about the man up there that night was that he was from Reno NV. I noted his name somewhere, I could find it if neccesary.
