Utah desert mystery monolith discovery - 'This is wild'

WILDLIFE Resource officers stumbled onto a scene straight out of "2001: A Space Odyssey" after they found a 12-foot tall metal monolith placed in the middle of the Utah desert.

While a Utah Department of Public Safety helicopter was assisting the Utah Division of Wildlife Resource officers Wednesday, they came across a giant metal monolith in the middle of the midst of barren land.

"One of the biologists is the one who spotted it and we just happened to fly directly over the top of it," said pilot Bret Hutchings, who flew the copter to help the Wildlife Resource officers count bighorn sheep in the area.

"He was like, 'Whoa, whoa, whoa, turn around, turn around!' And I was like, 'what,'" said Hutchings. "And he’s like, 'There's this thing back there - we've got to go look at it!'"

When they turned around, they couldn't believe what lay before them: a shiny metal monolith seemingly come out of the red solid ground.

"I'd say it’s probably between 10 and 12 feet-high," Hutchings estimated.
