Like I said how is not so interesting. There are many ways to do that. Why is what interests me. Someone was very motivated for sure. I would love to do a forensic investigation of the area.

I'm pretty certain when we sing our anthem and mention the land of the free, the original intent didn't mean cell phones, food stamps and birth control.

In another week it will be full of bullet holes from pissed off hunters anyway.
I'd rather die in a BAD gunfight than a GOOD nursing home.

Doing so will give us all an IQ boost, and start us the path to a new level of evolution. Personally, I'm an alien here looking for water to take back to my planet that's in an extreme drought. You humans are a curious lot. I hope my spaceship makes it back there.
MAGAA!

If you tipped 'er over flat, built a fire under it, you'd have a helluva griddle. But, then if it is aluminum...it'd stick pretty bad. OK, cancel that...back to aliens.

It's a 12'X3'X1" sheet of aluminum,....probably made by Alcoa. I've cut many pieces out of such "monoliths" when working in a machine shop.
Somebody hauled it out there with a 4 wheeler and set it up. Where are you getting these dimensions from? Surely not from the video.

Wonder if someone placed it for a mirror type reflector back towards their camp to be seen on a particular day that’s important to them?!

It would be a lot more impressive if it was stainless steel and about a foot thick...

So I guess they'll leave it out there and not pack it to the dump?

Lol 509 pounds. You would really need to know the alloy. It could be between 490 and 530 pounds depending on the alloy
