Disk over Blackfoot River, MT

The report, as filed

I was on a 2 day float trip on the Blackfoot river in Montana last summer in July. We started our float on a Thursday and camped passed the Whittaker bridge. I woke up early Friday morning as my tent was getting hot since the sun was beaming down on it. I went to my kayak to make sure that everything was there from the day before (straps, oars,) as the river could have moved things around during the night. I sat on a rock and lit my cigarette. I was looking toward the river to see if there were any fish, thinking this is the perfect time to catch one. While adjust my position on the rock I noticed aove the tree line, roughly less than 1/4 mile away from me I see a shinny silver saucer like object. The object was moving to slow to be a plane and there wasn’t any noise being produced. I was just thinking in my head how could this not be a ufo. It was not a drone, I did not see any wings or propellers. The object moved to the north and stopped and slowly move! d south.the distance it travelled was probably 1000ft. I wasn’t able to film the object as my phone was dead due to it roaming during the trip and the battery died. I watch it move back toward the north and I lost it in the tree line and never saw it again.
