On Friday, September 4, 1964, Donald Shrum and two friends from
his job at Aerojet made camp in a remote section of wilderness
near the Loch Leven Lakes in an area called Cisco Grove, roughly
60 miles northeast of Sacramento, CA. The three men had planned a
relaxing weekend of bow hunting for deer, but those plans would
change later that evening as Shrum experienced an exhausting and
terrifying UFO close encounter of the worst kind. As night
approached, Shrum got lost and separated from his hunting buddies
and found himself isolated on a bluff almost a mile from camp. An
experienced woodsman, Shrum decided it would be wiser to spend
the night in a tree safe from predators rather than trying to
find his way back over rough terrain in the dark. Seeing an
unusual moving light on the horizon, Shrum built three signal
fires to attract what he thought were his rescuers. The fires did
seem to attract this object’s attention, but not the kind anyone
wants. Beyond his wildest imagination and expectations, he would
soon find himself in an all-night battle to save his life or at
least his freedom. As Shrum perched in his pine tree 12 feet off
the ground and quietly observed this light, he realized it was
something like a headlight on a massive cigar-shaped craft. A
smaller ship emerged from one of this mothership’s large
rectangular ports and took a position some distance to his north.
Shortly after that, Shrum could hear rustling in the brush
heading his direction. What emerged were a combination of beings
he described as humanoid and wearing space suits and at least a
couple of what appeared to him as clunky robots who seemed to be
on a mission to study the flora. Once they had noticed Shrum in
the tree, however, a few of these weird beings seemed intent on
abducting him for reasons he feared to ponder. Until daybreak,
Shrum would fight off these intruders with everything he had at
his disposal. Shooting arrows and lobbing flaming personal items
at them only seemed to delay their trying to climb his tree in
between assaults with a mysterious white gaseous mist that would
render him temporarily unconscious. Perhaps ironically, it was
employing primitive means to counter advanced technology, but
whatever the unfathomable cause, it worked. Donald Shrum lived to
tell his tale but only after decades of PTSD and secrecy to
protect his reputation. While this story may seem unbelievable to
you, the United States Air Force certainly believed it and went
so far as to rake away all the evidence, literally. What remains
is one of the most bizarre and disturbing testimonies in UFO lore
– one man’s battle against extraterrestrials at Cisco
Grove.
