| Experience Level | 3/5 |
| Remarks | What i witnessed was very short, it came straight down seemingly and looked like a flare dropping or a firecracker but was large and broke apart at the end, I didn't see anything "go up" like a flare dropping so that's why I believe it was actually a fireball, it was near the Glenwood Springs airport too so i wonder if they might have some cam footage of it. Overall, it was very strange and interesting, never seen anything quite like it. |
