| Observer | |

| Name | Christopher Z |
| Experience Level | 4/5 |
| Remarks | As far as I can tell, it seemed to me that it was a downward angle, however I obviously can't be 100% about that but I'm fairly certain. my fiance saw the very end of it so she actually turned her head and still was able to see it that's how bright this thing was. And before it faded from my view it either went away or it went behind the tree whether it kept going behind the tree I don't know. Definitely the largest and brightest one that I have ever experienced. |
