A mysterious metal monolith has appeared on a hiking trail near Las Vegas leaving officials baffled as to how it got there.

The mirrored monolith was found near Gass Peak, approximately 25 miles from downtown by Las Vegas Metro Search and Rescue.

Las Vegas Metropolitan Police Department (LVMPD) officials confirmed the object was found on the popular hiking trail last weekend (15/6).

The peculiar looking metal slab is one of many which have been found across the world in recent years.

In late 2020, dozens of similar looking monoliths began popping up across the US as well as the UK, Canada, Romania and further afield, often before eerily disappearing.

The silver structures in the UK were found in Glastonbury, Cornwall and the Isle of Wight.

More recently, a 10ft (3m) monolith was found in on a hilltop near Hay-on-Wye, Powys, Wales, in March 2024.
