Erratic light at Gaub Pass and Sesriem Canyon

1973 ยท Gaub Pass and Sesriem Canyon, Namib Desert, Sesriem, Namibia

What was reported

Meeting the Blutkuppe witnesses reminded Roeis of a story told to him in 1973. At Easter that year a party of Swiss and Dutch friends camped one night at the Gaub Pass and another at Sesriem Canyon, both in the Namib many kilometres south of the Blutkuppe. On each evening they noticed a strong light in the distance moving rather erratically, each time to the west of their camp. Roeis admits their description was too vague to decide whether a distant vehicle or poachers could account for it.

What Hind made of it

Roeis: description too vague to exclude a distant car or poachers.

Explanation offered
Distant car or poachers, not excluded.
