On Saturday, we hiked up the Green Lake Trail up the pass to Vagabond Peak. While trekking straight up from the trail marker (on the plateau) straight to Vagabond (due South), came across 2 trekking poles standing straight up, with a very faded pink bandana on one. Next to them was a small black bag, approx 8x10", which looked fairly new. There was no discloration yet from being out in the sun. I did not move them, but did waypoint them & took pics, which I can post later. We did not see anyone else on the trail that day ahead of us. One couple with two dogs were behind us up to Brown Lake. There were faint footsteps on the trail up to the pass that may have been there in the previous 1-3 days, but definitely after last weeks rain. Being new to higher elevation hiking, I wasn't sure what the proper etiquette was in terms of gathering someone's items. We did look around in case there was someone injured? We saw no other obvious signs of someone being up there recently. Another hiker was up there on July 17th from Peakbagger list. I am aware of someone heading up to Cloudripper in the next few weeks if these items need to possibly be retrieved but I hope there isnt someone around there that belongs to those items. Advise pls. Thanks!
