Silver windowless oval sitting near the top of a mountain in full daylight

This object was a silver oval that was sitting on the top of a mountain (possibly Dome MT.) in the Tonto National Forest, to the southeast of Bush highway.

I was watching the Super Bowl on my phone with money on KC. The game was still in the first q. But we entered the short stretch of Bush Highway where data networks can't reach. So I was able to enjoy the natural beauty of this stretch of road. The visibility was unlimited-crystal clear afternoon desert skies.

Far off in the distance at elevation, a glint of silver caught my eye. My first thought was of an old-style Airstream trailer. But there is no way any type of vehicle could have been up there. It was sitting in an odd spot, not quite at the top of the peak but on a small outcropping just below. It's extremely rugged terrain on foot-let alone for anything heavy.

No windows, no struts, no markings. Just a seamless silver oval-not moving. The driver of the vehicle confirmed that he could see it as well and we both agreed on the description. We also concurred that it was impossible for a vehicle to be present at that location. We were able to observe it for less than five minutes as the road took us out of its view.
