Update - Object viewed for 3-4 minutes - Not a Satellite.

Update for the Hazelton, B.C. -  17 Km north for December, 2002.
Hello to you Brian, Thank you for your prompt reply.  When I reflect to that time of this sighting I would say that as the satellite appeared from behind nine mile mountain from Kispiox Valley, it was in front of Roche de Boule mountain with Hazelton down below.  It looked like it was flying due west.  There was no sound.  Then it made an L-shaped turn north where it looked like it slowed around Kispiox Village ( for maybe 30 seconds ) at which time I was seeing it through the binoculars. It was not that high up. And still no sound.  As soon as it was exactly west of me I watched with the eyes until it was behind the trees.  This was all within about 3-4 minutes total at the most.
We have the jets going to Alaska around 11:30 am which are very high up. Also they come from the southeast and go right over the house here and leave the Kispiox Valley heading in a northwestern straight line.
So that is why I thought maybe a satellite because of its unusual flight pattern, almost as thought it was going to Terrace, then decided to head up the Kispiox Valley on the western side of the valley.
I appreciate your interest in this matter.  Thank You for time
