UFO Wisconsin’s interactive UFO map of Wisconsin
I know there are plenty of you out there who think about UFOs pretty much year round, but with Halloween fast approaching, many people who’ve never even seen an episode of The X-Files start getting alien-obsessed. Well, both of you groups should like this …
Hurtling towards us at the speed of awesome is UFO Wisconsin’s more or less interactive “UFO Reports by County” map. It details Wisconsin UFO reports. By county. The last sighting they have for Eau Claire County is 2005, but Chippewa County has an ’08 sighting.
I believe all the reports listed are made directly to UFO Wisconsin and they’re … well, many of them sound kinda crazy. They’re just straight up reports from people like you and me, and they run the gamut from “weird lights moving fast in the distance” to “aliens visit my backyard all the time.” For me, believability isn’t really part of the equation. It’s just fun to hear your neighbors talk about this stuff.
UFO Wisconsin has a book out with a forward from our good buddy Chad Lewis, who does this terrific blog.

I am looking for anything on a ufo sighting over Clear Lake in Wisconsin or Thunder Lake in Wisconsin that would be about 35 to 40 years old. It seems that a ufo was sighted by some girls on Clear Lake and they were apparently traumatized by the sighting and had to go to the hospital. The same day my sister had a strange dream that an alien had been looking in the upstairs window of our family cottage in Three Lakes, Wisconsin on Thunder Lake. My brother got up later than my sister and said he had dreamt of a spaceship. My mother just laughed at their silliness. Later that day they went to visit my grandmother in Saynor and she asked if they had seen any little green men. Apparently it was on the news about the Clear Lake sighting, of which my brother and sister knew nothing of. So we are trying to find out any news stories etc pertainng to that incident. Most of the stuff I have searched has been more recent stuff. Would love to hear from anyone who knows anything about this sighting.
