“The object was found in a remote area that Aaron Bott, a spokesman for the Utah Division of Wildlife Resources, described as rugged and very rocky, with many canyons and potential hazards. “It’s a tough place to get to on vehicle and on foot,” he said.”

I’m telling you, it’s on vacation. Can’t expect it to stick around any one location for any length of time.

Aliens weren’t involved? I haven’t been this disappointed since I fell for the Balloon Boy Hoax of 2009.

Aliens left their litter after picnics. Finally left guilty about it and came back to clear up.
