I was only on the trail for about 60 seconds when I noticed a bright, gold starlike object moving quickly in my direction. This was just after sunset and there was still a lot of light and no stars yet. It was sphere like and appeared to be “spinning”, had a slight glow from the underside. It went from gold-ish to looking like a spectrum of colors, kind of like Polaris when you zoom in. It was fast moving and I have no logical explanation for what this could be.
It was not any of the following; a star, a satellite, a plane, a helicopter, any aircraft I’ve seen in my lifetime.
Side note; I’ve been seeing things I can’t explain with increasing frequency. Seems like I can’t NOT see something and it’s getting weird. Please tell me I’m not the only one!
