| Name | G. M |
| Experience Level | 1/5 |
| Remarks | Not sure about the time. !0:00 p.m. MDT is a guess. Was in the garden and turned in time to see an orange ball descend steeply ENE of Sheridan, over the Tobacco Root Mountains, in the general direction of Bozeman. No trail, no sound. Speed of descent seemed slow, like a cinder falling more than a shooting star. |
