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.
