CHRISTOPHER O'BRIEN: From 1992 to 2002 Chris investigated and/or logged hundreds of unexplained events reported in the San Luis Valley—located in South-central Colorado/North Central New Mexico. Worked with law enforcement officials from area counties, ex-military members, ranchers and an extensive network of skywatcher/investigators. Documented what may have been the most intense wave of unexplained activity ever seen in a single region of North America. He wrote three books that covered his 10 year SLV investigations: The Mysterious Valley, Enter the Valley (St Martin’s Press) and Secrets of the Mysterious Valley and three additional books. As a result of his investigations and research, he has compiled and produced one of the largest databases of unusual occurrences from a single geographic region.”

The horse mutilation occurred near Alamosa, South Central Colorado (San Luis Valley) in early September 1967. 

The real name of the horse was Lady.

UFO News Article:
“Lifestyles: Colorado hamlet
strange range for deer”


16 February 1994
(Kingman Daily Miner, Arizona)

The article reports on the UFO/animal mutilation research work of Crestone resident Christopher O’Brien.

Quote from the article:
“And at night, some say, the UFOs come out.

‘I’ve seen all kinds of odd lights in the sky at night,’ says Brian Norton, Rio Grande County undersheriff. ‘Just about everyone has, but they don’t call us about them anymore, not more than once or twice a week anyway.

This matter-of-fact attitude confounds O’Brien.

‘Look, I’m a skeptic,’ he said. ‘I assume that everything has a mundane explanation, and 99 percent of the time that’s the case.

‘But in my database, I’ve collected over 600 unexplained UFO sightings in the valley (San Luis Valley), some witnessed by 30 or more people. And it’s not just a modern phenomenon. This place was considered sacred by the Indians, and the first European explorers reported seeing lights in the sky. This place is what I call high strange.’

O’Brien is in one of his favourite UFO watching spots near the huge Baca Range, a few miles from Crestone. It’s a clear and windy night, and he can see 100 miles in any direction.

O’Brien works with a pair of Army surplus Starlight binoculars that enhance night vision. They date to the Vietnam War, but it is the best equipment he can afford.

‘It allows you to see commercial craft 60 miles away that would be invisible otherwise,’ he says.

Tonight, he is looking for the anomalous lights that dance over the valley in ways no commercial aircraft could.

And around 8 p.m. they appear.

Hovering over the Great Sand Dunes National Monument a few miles to the southeast are orange and white globes of light. They do zig-zag maneuvers in formation, break apart and then reassemble. Sometimes, they come to a full stop and just sit in the sky.

And although the occasional commercial plane fills the valley with the rumbling sound of its engines, these craft are silent. The only sound is the wind over the desert.

‘My guess is what we’re seeing is some kind of helicopter technology being tested,’ O’Brien says. ‘Maybe some top secret black budget project. But we’ll never know.’

David Jaramillo has been the UPS delivery driver in the San Luis Valley for 21 years. He’s also a small rancher. Like most residents of the valley, he says he’s seen incredible lights in the sky and, once or twice, has seen them land and take off.

Last fall, he took his family up to the cabin he keeps in the Sangres at 10,000 feet. They found a cow nearby that had been killed and mutilated with surgical precision.

Nearby, Jaramillo says he found circles pressed into the ground, each 4 feet in diameter, about 15 feet apart, forming a triangle. He guesses it’s where some sort of craft landed.

‘It’s impossible to get here by road without cutting through my gates,’ he says. ‘And besides, this place is in the middle of nowhere. It’s impossible to find.’

Cattle mutilations are old news most places, usually ascribed to natural causes such as predators. But they happen with alarming regularity in the San Luis Valley.”

UFO Report:
“The 1992 UFO Chronology”


Created: 15 November 2008
(NICAP.org)

Quote from the UFO report:
“This is currently a 10-page chronology of UFO incidents and events for 1992. Our thanks for these chronologies must go to Richard Hall (the original 1992 chronology from UFOE II), Dan Wilson (archive researcher), and Jean Waskiewicz (online NICAP DBase [NSID]. You will note the many foreign reports that we are now being able to access. Our special thanks to Dan Wilson for getting those to us. As more come in, this page will be updated. Previous chronologies (1947 to 1969) involved the expertise of two other team members; Rebecca Wise (Project Blue Book Archive) and Brad Sparks (Comprehensive Catalog of Project Blue Book Unknowns). Bob Gribble’s entries are those filed with the National UFO Reporting Center in Seattle, Washington, now operated by Peter Davenport. Trace cases are now being entered with the help of Ted Phillips, Center for Physical Trace Research and retrofitted into previous chronologies as time permits. Since I was Indiana State Director (MUFON) at that time, some of our Indiana cases are listed here.

Jan. 4, 1992; Saga Prefecture, Japan
Late at night a farmer that had experienced strange cattle mutilations in the past was awakened by the sound of his dog barking. The farmer went to investigate and upon entering the cow shed saw a small white ‘object’ resembling a jellyfish with numerous tentacle-like protrusions coming out of its bottom. The ‘object’ was floating in the air; it then drifted outside where it vanished. A cow was discovered on the floor. It had a badly broken leg. (Source: Jenny Randles, Peter A. Hough, World Best True UFO Stories)

March 13, 1992; Bellevue, WS
10:00 AM. Mr. Hooker, the chief photographer for WFRV-TV, videotaped a cigar-shaped UFO in Bellevue, Wisconsin, which is a suburb of Green Bay. The UFO traveled from right to left in the frame, passing behind a windmill. Its estimated altitude was 25,000 feet, and it had a speed of 7,000 mph. (Source: Timothy Good, Alien Update, p. 257).

April 28, 1992; Lajas, Puerto Rico
A jet aircraft tentatively identified as a U.S. Air Force F-14 Tomcat was seen pursuing a domed disc-shaped UFO. The UFO would make multiple stops, and as the jet closed in the saucer split in half. The top half flew off toward the southwest and the other half flew off to the east. The F-14 jet remained circling in the area, and then flew off to the east. (Source: Timothy Good, Alien Update, 
p. 30).

June 5, 1992; near Wanaque Reservoir, NJ
10:50 PM. Strange lights were seen and videotaped. The lights maneuvered about the sky, and faded in and out. Wanaque Reservoir has been the scene of many repeated UFO sightings, especially in the 1960s. (Source: Paul Ferrughelli, Computer Catalogue of UFO Reports, 1988-1994).

June 10, 1992; Coatesville, PA
4:30 PM. Several workers at the Lukens Steel Company plant saw a disc-shaped UFO land on the factory grounds around quitting time. The security guard said that the object touched down briefly and then took off in the direction of the old Coatesville Hospital. The company, a defense contractor, refused to let UFO investigators talk with any of the witnesses or answer further questions about what they saw. Attempts to set up interviews outside of the plant were also unsuccessful. (Thomas Carey, MUFON; West Chester Daily Local News, June 12, 1992.)

Aug. 29, 1992; Mount Seymour, British Columbia
2:30 AM. Three cylinders were seen in the sky at close range after a home burglar alarm system and lights were effected. The policeman witness was unable to wake his wife, but their baby reacted to the close encounter, and their dog became sick. The incident lasted 30 minutes. (Sources: Lorne Goldfader, Alien Update, p. 280; Lumieres dans la Nuit, issue 318).

Sept. 17, 1992; north of Gardner, CO
1:30 PM. A 12-foot long metallic object with stubby wings, and a clear dome or cupola, buzzed UFO investigator Christopher O’Brien and his partner while driving seven miles north of Gardner. It made no sound. (Source: Christopher O’Brien, The Mysterious Valley, p. 54).

Dec. 24, 1992; southwest of Monroe, LA
6:00 PM. Twenty civilian witnesses and police southwest of Monroe, Louisiana watched a silent, boomerang shaped UFO with bright beams of light pass over cars in a forested area and bounce up and down for six minutes. The object was videotaped by one of the witnesses, a 39-year-old man. (Source: W. L. Garner, Jr., MUFON UFO Journal, November 1993).”
