I was at Rampart Reservoir, and saw a huge flaming fireball fly into the atmosphere. Was this a meteor?

Woodland Park, CO

Walking into the house, I looked to the west night sky and saw what I thought was Orion’s Belt. I thought I was going nuts because I know that it is usually southish of my house at that time. Then I noticed a ball of light shoot out of one of the “stars” going up into the sky instead of down. This happened repeatedly in equal interval, creating a diagonal line up towards the north. So, I called my husband to verify that I wasn’t going crazy and he saw the same thing. It reminded me of the old shooting arcade games that shot things out with equal intervals. This lasted maybe 5 minutes before it stopped. I honestly have no idea how many there were, but there were maybe 5 in a row before the top one disappeared from view with a total of 13 in the series that I observed.
