Several people have already successfully located the monolith, tucked in a redrock slot canyon south of Moab. And according to three explorers who've made the pilgrimage, it's easier to find than you might expect.

"We have received credible reports that the illegally installed structure, referred to as the 'monolith,' has been removed" from BLM public lands, the post said.He was one of the first to find it

With some idea of where the monolith was located, McBride and a friend set out while it was still dark to its rough location. They slept there and woke at sunrise to be among the first to reach it. The monolith appeared to be riveted to a metal frame likely drilled into the Utah rock -- something McBride has mixed feelings about. On one hand, whoever installed the monolith there defaced public land .

These explorers are probably why it was removed. Folks not wanting a bunch of hikers destroying private land or getting stuck somewhere and needing rescue. Google Earth shows it was there since 2016 so for it to be gone 10 days after discovery, that seems the most likely.

that thing was supposed to be trump’s tin-hat award from the alien community when he left office TinHatAward

Well this is depressing. Back to the usual 2020 again I guess 🥺

yeah but now it's gone!

Its gone

And if i know Americans the spot will be destroyed with litter and waste. Then someone will die taking a selfie and the area will be closed.

They say it’s gone now

I am still confused as to what the hell is it and why was it put there in the first place? 🤔

It’s fake! As much as that area is flown over, hiked etc and now it’s found is just plain stupid! It’s shiny and new too! Not buying this fantasy!

ATLiens

Old news. It’s no longer there

Made the pilgrimage? Is this some sort of holy object?

The most useless news of this year!

I guess it's really difficult to find

Ya its easier when you know where it is.

The aliens are done with their experiment on human reactions to their piece of metal I'm sure it was quite entertaining.

Won't be long before humans leave garbage all over the area.

Hiking experience was worth it I guess...🤷🏻‍♂️

Y’all better stop playing! The way 2020 is set up....

It’s gone now.

FXStefan Leave that thing alone!!

Good idea to encourage more to try and find it, which is probably a publicity stunt anyway. It’s not even interesting

Aaaaand, it’s gone.

I thought they solved this wasn't it an art installation they left up

Sjlly peoqle. VVe dibn't knovv you woulb care.

3hrs ago on cnn. 6hrs ago on NYT. mariannaspring Who do we believe?

Nice

Stupid

People should also go find and tear down Ted Turner's Georgia Guidestones.

Okay that is mine and I want it back.

I dunno about that. I expect it to be pretty damn easy to find. Like, 'here's a map' easy. Is it THAT easy?

It´s gone. Maybe taken by a souvenir hunter.

Did CNN consult their alien fact checkers on this? Probably huh?

Can we all just say what it really was all this time someone put it there to get some publicity

Oh really? the artist who installed the work of art put it somewhere it would surely be discovered and accessed? 🙄

That's just Silly and Boring.

Not there anymore!!!

People starting bull****...Just stop it. Better yet, WHY indulge with reporting it?

That thing has been put there since 2015 according to Google Map photo record.

Who cares? Why is this news?

‘Furnace duct dumped on rural land baffles thousands of fucking idiots.’

The aliens already took it back

They said someone already stole it.

Bc they put it there

You do know it has disappeared, right?🤦

It was definitely alien related!

kuku27 One says, it sounds like cardboard, it has rivets, some missing, made of perhaps Aluminium, it is not alien but some artwork or fake , misleading people

Dig it up

Make more people aware of this.

That’s a scheduled tweet whoopsie daisy.

Lol so they planted it

What is the big deal here, someone stuck a piece of metal in the dessert

Well, ist's vanished now

USO - Unidentified Standing Object

Look like a secret ceremony location for some alien religion cult. The relic might be moved to a new location as it was discovered.

It’s been gone

Hit me up if you wanna get bills paid💸💸💯💰I do Cashapp,PayPal Venmo, zelle

I'll be very disappointed if nature's artists already havent tagged its surfaces with spray paint.

Good one.

It's time to shed our 'missing link' status and become truly 'civilized human beings,' a higher form of life.

Not anymore suckers

婊子

hello UnboxTherapy

It's gone.

It's already gone.

Reliable sources say there is an inscription: 'Badges? Badges! We don't need no stinking Badges.', followed by 'hecho en Mexico'. Why isn't the Space Force assigned to the Border Wall?

I bet it's STUFFED with stolen ballots, all for Trump. Yeah, that's it. Proof of his election fraud allegations!

Holy crap who cares?

americans will need rolled to voting stations next year if they keep not wearing masks! This QuarantineLife is lasting a lot longer than it should!

PR stunt?

Have no idea what that is. Article didn't open all the way What's a monolith?

A relic of 'Mythbusters' perhaps? 😎

FAKE NEWS MEDIA

I dont think the location is what eliminates the idea of aliens being behind it but more so what it was made out of.

CNN as always is a day late, the monolith has disappeared and Government claims it didn't do it...

It vanished hours ago, so you guys are a bit late with your reporting.

A distraction, but considering what we've been bombarded with for the past year... 4 years, I find it rather refreshing.

and of course the more the Americans out there the more likely it is of being stolen, graffitied and/or destroyed by religious nutters

It's for a treasure hunt.
