Details:
The night of the supposed peak of the Gemnid meteor shower was the 13/14th, but the night of the 14/15th proved far more fruitful. I counted over 20 meteors, over a 5 hour period, most were fireballs, yikes those are beautiful! The peak occurred around 2330 MST, the largest of the fireballs was an earth grazer that I unfortunately missed, nevertheless a wonderful -25 degrees Celsius night :).
