Experience Level 1/5
Remarks We were star gazing after backpacking 6 miles into west Clear Creek wilderness. We were on a high plateau bluff that we hiked up to and had a broad vision angle of the sky. It crossed the entire sky above us and was significantly brighter than any star in the sky. It lit up the area around us with no moon.
