This meteor had an odd light curve that is making the analysis a bit
trickier than usual. But I can say that it was traveling very slowly (but
too fast for space junk), descended at a moderate angle, and survived to at
least 30 km. All in all, an excellent candidate for producing meteorites.
Anything that survived is probably a bit east of Hoyt, Colorado- all ranch
and farmland.
