This was event 6241-2021. It went right over me. Thank goodness it landed in the wilderness because the main object was about a centimeter long from my perspective and it was no more than 10kms from me and no less than 6kms based on where it went behind the mountains.

Remarks
I was standing on the second floor balcony of a two story structure facing south when the sky lit up bright enough for me to see the entire scenery in front of me. This is significant because even a full moon isn't bright enough to illuminate the area like this flash did. A second or two later a bright object came into my visual range from directly behind me just over my right shoulder. It was followed by 4 or 5 smaller objects and a trail of fire and smoke and continued south and disappeared behind the mountains between Mt. White Pyramid and Mt Epaulet about 7 kms from my position. The sky returned to its normal night state a second or two after the last object disappeared behind the mountains.
