Drederek Posted May 18, 2015 Share Posted May 18, 2015 I found a pack on the S Brother today, with some basic mountaineering equipment in it, a little ways off the beaten path. As I did not have room to haul it all out I just grabbed the mtneering items, leaving the rat-chewed pack and other contents there, sorry. PM me with what was in there and we can figure out how to get it back to you and give you the location of the pack. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Off_White Posted May 18, 2015 Share Posted May 18, 2015 At least the pack wasn't still attached to a torso, unlike Toni Egger's boot... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
num1mc Posted May 18, 2015 Share Posted May 18, 2015 You need to contact the authorities, this may be the property of an injured or deceased.

Drederek Posted May 18, 2015 Author Share Posted May 18, 2015 That was one of the scenarios I contemplated as I was walking out, thanks for the link. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Drederek Posted May 19, 2015 Author Share Posted May 19, 2015 (edited) I was very glad to find no body parts, Senor Blanco. It appears to have been a fall including a stout rap on the head followed by a heli rescue. After reading the nwhikers thread I'm sure its his gear. All will be returned and if anyone going up that way wants to carry his mostly intact pack down it'd most likely be appreciated as well.
