NARRATIVE

This sighting occurred during one of the worst air inversions ever in the Salt Lake valley. The inversion was so thick that vehicles had their headlights on at noon.
I was riding in the bed of a pickup truck enjoying the reflection of the city lights on the dense smog/fog layer above me. 
Suddenly, an enormous triangle glided silently over my head. I would guess it to be 3-4 times larger than a commercial airliner. It was 50 feet above me and was dark gray. It had no lights and the reflection of the city lights revealed the gray color.
I stood up and watched it glide into the night. the whole experience was 20 seconds at best.
