Yellow shiny object seen near Westcliffe in 1967

Summary

A civilian observer reported a shiny yellow object shaped like a tent, pointed at the top, and resting on four logs. The object was larger than a car and smaller than a house, and remained visible for about an hour. The witness did not see the object fly, making its classification as a UFO questionable. The report reached the military analysis center late, complicating the investigation. Others in the group also saw it, but did not provide additional details.

The lack of photographs or physical evidence, combined with the delayed official notification, limited researchers' ability to determine the object's nature. Cloudy weather and a rainstorm led the observer to leave the area. Despite efforts to obtain more information through additional forms, no responses were received. The report suggests the interest might be linked to recent publicity about another UFO incident in the region.
