LOST Camera -Red Hills Needle Canyon- REWARD

Post by mr_squishy »

On 2/19/12 I lost my Pentax Optio W90 camera in Red Hills Needle Canyon between Bull Pass trail and the "#5 Finally 4/16/1966" rock. The camera is black with green trim and has a short black webbing strap with a single orange stripe. I think I took my last photo at a pour-off .11 miles up-canyon from the rock. However, I searched the area intensely for two hours without success, so it may be further up canyon toward the Bull Pass Trail (I started at Bull Pass trail and traveled down canyon). I'm offering a $100 REWARD for return of the camera - it has my Battleship Mtn hike photos on it (among others). I'm offline from 2/23 until 3/7, but if you find it, please contact me at yellowporcupine@gmail.com
Oh, and it is an underwater camera, so if it's lying at the bottom of a pool, it's still good.
PS - I think I also lost my map in the canyon, probably thrashing through brush along the stream bed. This was just not a good route for me that day........ :(
NOTE 1/2/13: I'm returning to AZ for a month on Jan 7 - I'd still like to find this camera - the reward is still offered. Heck....keep the camera, I just want the darn memory card with the photos.

Please forgive the repost. I am back in AZ and am hoping someone may stumble upon this camera.

We hiked through the canyon in October but didn't see any sign of a camera.
Expect to self rescue
