| Name | Christy K |
| Experience Level | 3/5 |
| Remarks | The time is an approximate, it may have been a little later. When it came down it had a long tail and was really big and green, it exploded just above the top of the mountains I was facing to the direct east which is toward Las Vegas, Nevada. The height I first saw it was probably a few degrees higher than I indicated but exploded just above the mountain from my point of view. If I ever see another I will pay closer attention to time and details. |
