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.
