Mike Clelland

Mike Clelland has had many callings—author, illustrator, wilderness traveler, podcaster, and UFO researcher. His books fall into two contrasting categories. First came funny outdoor instructionals with cartoons. These taught the technical skills of skiing, climbing, mountain travel, glacier rescue, and ultralight backpacking. Next came a more thoughtful series, an inquiry into the relationship between owls and UFOs.

Mike’s 2015 book, The Messengers, was met with high praise. In it, he explores the mysterious connection between owls, synchronicities, and UFO abduction. It was his first-hand experiences with these elusive events that have been the foundation for his research. This book is also a personal memoir, and a journey of self-discovery.

His website, MikeClelland.com, is a comprehensive resource of his research and creative output. After 25 years living in the Rockies, he now lives in the Pacific Northwest.
