5 large orange circles (looked like fire) that formed circle, then two disappeared and 3 formed a triangle, then disappeared.

Location: North Boulder

About 9pm, two friends and I were outside. We saw 5 large orange circles (what appeared to be fire in the foothills, or what looked just like wildfire in the foothills outside of Boulder). They were very large--it looked as if it was fire moving up the foothills.

As we watched these, they were climbing up into the foothills (not far off the ground) in a straight line. They started to move together into a circle--at this point, it was apparent they were not on the foothills, but in the sky just above the mountain line.

After forming a tight circle, two disappeared while the other 3 formed a triangle and started to climb much higher into the sky. The two bottom ones disappeared about halfway into the sky (I would say 15,000-20,000 feet) while the top one climbed to at least 40,000 feet and then disappeared.

They were bright and it was only 9pm--so there had to be others who saw this. If so, please post!
