Giant Metal Monolith Appears in Colorado, Mystifying Locals
A new monolith has appeared in Colorado, this time near Fort Collins. It's one of nearly 250 mysterious monoliths that have popped up around the world since 2020, with another recent appearance near Las Vegas.
The monolith stands 8 feet tall and is bolted to a concrete pad on private property outside Bellvue, CO. Locals began spotting it after pictures were posted on Reddit, and it's generating plenty of buzz.
'Where is the alien structure?':
A woman and her husband came in and she was very excited. She was like, 'where is the alien structure?' I looked at her, like, 'what are you talking about?' - Brooke Williams, cafe manager
The monolith's origins are a mystery to owners Rob and Lori Graves, who also own the nearby Howling Cow Cafe and Morning Fresh Dairy Farm. Lori Graves stated, "I would like to know the answer to that myself... Maybe an artist trying to make a statement. Maybe aliens trying to enhance their communications. There’s been a lot of guesses."
The first unexplained monolith appeared in Utah in 2020, with subsequent appearances in Romania, California, the Isle of Wight, and Wales.
