Went up to Horton Spring to hopefully recover hikerdw's lost GPS unit & get in a short hike during the window I had open today. With only a few other people on the trail today I was able to set a good pace and reach the spring in an hour. After a quick search of the area I continued on up #292 for a mile (basically the edge of the rim) before turning back. I Zig zagged my way down, taking my time as I scanned the ground and tall grass. Once back down at the spring I asked a couple who were camping nearby if they came across it. I looked along the shore and in the water from the spring down to the first little cascade beyond the wood bridge. Sorry David, no luck today. I did make myself useful and picked up lots of trash left behind by the weekend crowd. I got sprinkled on once or twice but nothing else came of it and by the time I finished back at the TH it was warm and sunny again. Unfortunately this is the kind of place where any lost valuables can be snagged within minutes of being dropped.
