Lander, WY

Two friends and I took a ride up Sinks Canyon which is approximately 10 minutes south of Lander. We were going on a drive and it was the middle of winter. We looked up and saw a bright white light. We were sitting in a one seater pickup truck. I thought perhaps it was the moon. My friends corrected me and the moon was on the opposite side of the sky. It appeared to be a large floating white light. It was a couple thousand feet above the top edge of the canyon. We started to talk about it and it turned to an orange light. It looked like it had moved a mile across the sky within seconds and vanished entirely.
