This weird sighting was totally unexpected, exceptionally odd and totally unexplained.

One single flying object approached myself (a non local) and another local hunter immediately after leaving hunting stands in the dark around 17:00 while we were returning to ranch in UTV with lights on in 40,000 acre tract. Object approached very close with extremely bright white lights and hovered for some time without any hearable noise. We were startled at first wondering what it was and then stopped to watch the object as it approached. Once we stopped, it hovered nearby in silence with extreme bright white light lighting up the sky and ground. Other individual looked at object with binoculars and described it as triangular with three bright lights. I had already packed my binoculars and phone for the trip back to ranch in UTV and was unable to look closely or take pictures. All occurred in just a few minutes and when I attempted to unpack phone camera the object rose and moved directly south of us at a high rate of speed without any noise. Lights subse! quently went out and object disappeared. We were both stunned!
