[pct-l] FOUND: PCT hiker needs HELP finding lost camera

[pfreiman at ucsd.edu (Freiman, Paul)]

Problem solved.  I know Donna Gookin from orienteering and she said she priority mailed it to Big Bear on Monday.  It will get there before Rob does.  What a great bunch of people we have along the PCT!
By the way, Bill Gookin (Donna's ex) is the inventor of Gookinade/ERG, the best isotonic drink for dehydration there is.  You can buy it at REI.

rob rathmann at http://www.trailjournals.com/carcinomad/ hitchhiked his way into Idyllwild on sunday, may 22, 2005.  on this evening, he accidently left his camera in the back of steven gookin's (trailname:  mountain goat) aunt and uncle's toyota prius. 
 
if anyone out there knows stephen gookin or a friend of his so i can make contact with either of them, it would be SOOOOOOOOOO appreciated.
 
please respond to this email and i will contact you (at mo1nat1rad@yahoo.com).   i will provide you with money in order to ship rob's camera to his next drop off. 
 
many, many thanks.   
 
rob,
