[pct-l] missing hiker

[briandid at telusplanet.net (Brian Forestell)]

I returned on June 5th from a three week section hike of section's A-C.  Two
people we hiked most of the time with reported seeing an abandoned looking
tent on Fuller Ridge.  It was an REI tent.  They just said it seemed a bit
strange at the time but thought nothing of it.  When they saw the tent none
of us had any information there was a lost hiker.  The two hikers we were
with are heading on and will be getting to Aqua Dulce in a couple weeks.  I
don't know if this abandoned tent is anyway connected.

anything is going to be done it will be done by lovers of the PCT.
Rivreside SAR will continue to do regular training exercises in the area but
nothing widespread or organized unless a substantial clue is found.  When we
were looking we found a canteen on Saturday and  according to one of his
friends John had a traditional of carrying a canteen.  But as we researched
further with his hiking buddy Lynn claims that he had resorted to a bladder
system.  The haystack did not dissappointedly get smaller.
