Lost and Found GoPro $1000 bounty
Post Body

Hi everyone! I launched a GoPro in a weather balloon from Lone Pine in February of 2021 during a storm. I lost contact with the balloon over the White Mountain Peak/Death Valley area, and it could be anywhere in that radius. It was housed in a blue and white 3D printed cube. My address was on it but it may be illegible after all these years.

It has incredible footage on it of Mt. Whitney during a beautiful storm, and I have been searching for it ever since.

If this story sounds familiar or you've stumbled upon something like this please reach out. Or if you hike in this area keep an eye out for it.

I can provide GPS coordinates to people in the area who want to hunt for it and I will pay handsomely.

Thank you!!!

PS if anyone here knows someone who works at MAXAR or a similar GIS company and has access to high quality satellite scan databases this would be huge

PPS to everyone asking for coordinates- I'm trying to get access to high accuracy satellite scans from around that time that I'll search through with Google Earth Engine, so I can provide more accurate coordinates in a month or so as opposed to the 100 mi radius it currently lies in.
