White orb hovering over mountain.

At 9:30pm, walking outside. A group of us noticed on the mountain to the north, on the east side of the town, a large white light, hovering over the mountain. There was a small orange light on the left, near the white orb. They hovered for a few minutes together and the large white orb began blinking on and off. Finally, the large white light went out permanently. The smaller light remained on for a few more minutes when the white light came back on for a minute. When it went out a second time, it left a residue of a faint light that lasted several minutes, then the side, smaller light went out. Both did not resume their lumination.

We have observed these white orb lights in the same spot of the mountain over the town for several months. Practically once a week, since I walk the same trail each week, near the same time at night.

We cannot tell how close to the ground of the mountain that the object is hovering.
