“This photo was taken April 2013 at about 12:45 p.m. The sun was way to the right of Columbia Mountain. As soon as I took the photo the ball of light collapsed into a small orb and flew off toward the East and quickly disappeared. Two months later two of my employees witnessed the same thing. Other people have also reported seeing large balls of light on or over Columbia Mountain.”
