Multiple observers reported a flying craft crash-landing on Mount Fager in Norway during a snowstorm. Search teams found tracks and footprints, but official probes concluded it was a rock misidentified amid harsh weather.
Background
Initial Sighting
On February 5, 1934, during intense snowfall, various witnesses spotted what appeared to be a flying apparatus descending onto a plateau atop Mount Fager, Norway. Using optical instruments, they observed the object and two figures nearby, seemingly removing accumulated snow from around it.
Search Efforts
By February 7, multiple rescue groups reached the site, noting markings resembling aircraft paths and unusual imprints in the snow close by. Further teams combed the region, initially describing the landing spot as level ground.
Official Investigation
Norwegian maritime and law enforcement experts examined the area, ruling out any possibility of an aircraft operating from that terrain. The so-called tracks proved to be storm-induced grooves, and the supposed plateau was actually a noticeably inclined slope. The entire episode centered on a sizable boulder mistaken for the craft.
Significance
This event fits into 1930s Scandinavian 'ghost flyer' reports, highlighting optical illusions in severe winter conditions. No evidence of extraterrestrial or anomalous activity persisted after scrutiny.
