Oval over Pearl Lake State Park (25 miles north of Steamboat Springs), CO

The report, as filed

Date: June 19, 2020 (a Friday) Time: 0403 to 0413 hrs Location: Pearl Lake State Park (campsite 10), north of Steamboat Springs, Colorado While camping, I stepped out of my tent about 0401 hrs and viewed the sky to the east; my tent flap was facing directly east towards the lake. I observed constellations and stars; it was about 38 degrees Fahrenheit that night with the sky being very clear. At about 0403 hrs, I turned to the west and observed 2 lines of oval lights moving in a northwesterly direction; the shape of the lights were very similar to the shape we see on our voting ballots. Although there were 2 lines in unison, each oval shape was either a little lower or higher than the next but did form 2 distinct lines. Color of the lights was soft white and there was absolutely no noise. Rough estimate of the number of lights is 150 to 200. From the time I observed the lights, they continued for about 10 minutes (0413 hrs). At this time, there was one light that appeared to be the last one. This last one was behind the 2 lines and rather centered but not entirely. The lights were very orderly, spaced equally apart with no blinking or pulsing. I got the definite feeling that there was a mission to be accomplished by the lights (UFO’s). When I initially viewed the lights, they had been on-going so I do not know how long they were in the sky.
