Colorado State University senior Harrison Fraser, of Arvada, visits the mysterious, metallic, reflective monolith anchored by bolts in a concrete base, on a hill northwest of Fort Collins, June 27, 2024. No one seems to know, or is not saying, how it came to be there.

Silhouetted against the sky, visitors stand next to a mysterious, metallic, reflective monolith anchored by bolts in a concrete base, on a hill northwest of Fort Collins, June 27, 2024. No one seems to know, or is saying, how it came to be there, but it was first noticed about a week ago, and has drawn a steady stream of curious onlookers ever since.
