Observer
Name Noah C
Experience Level 2/5
Remarks I was driving and I saw this weird thing I thought was the Sun peeking over the mountain. Not the case. It was also too early by a few hours to see the sun yet. Watched this massive thing slowly burn across the sky for several seconds before it dipped too low and i couldn't see it anymore. Beautiful colors, awesome colorful trail, terrifying in size, and I honestly believed it was going to make contact with the planet somewhere in Washington.
