Based on data from three allsky cameras, this meteor was traveling on a
heading of 260? about 30 km south of Grand Junction, CO. Its ground path
was at least 86 km, its average speed was 18 km/s, and it was very
shallow (~6?), burning from a height of 54 km to a height of 45 km over
the recorded path. It terminated over the CO-UT border. It was a good
candidate for a meteorite producer, but anything that dropped is going
to be in hard terrain.
