Lost but not yet found

I found a digital camera about a month ago while I was out hiking around Hoffmaster State Park. It was sitting in the snow and I had serious doubts that it would work. However, I knew I could probably recover the pictures and try to find the owner.

After letting it dry out, I tried to turn it on. Amazingly, it worked! I could not believe it. I looked at the pictures and, unfortunately, could not recognize a single event, place, or person, except the pictures taken at Hoffmaster. There were no tell tale signs as to the owner of this camera. I have been looking in the paper for the past couple weeks to see if there were any "Lost" ads for a camera. I also left my contact information with "lost and found" at the ranger station. No one I showed the pictures to recognized anything in them either.

I have heard and read nothing. I feel pretty bad. I wish that I could go on TV and just show some of the pictures so someone may recognize the owner and let me know.

There is another side to this story. (more to come this Tuesday)
