Just wondering what sort of interesting things you may have found in your travels that others have lost or left behind . Or, have you managed to leave anything of value behind?

The only things of consequence that we've lost were a set of double, cast iron, jaffle irons and a set of binoculars. Had used the jaffle irons to make a lunch stop snack and set them down on a log to cool. Then drove off and didn't realize until we were too far down the road. The binos somehow fell out of the truck in some long grass and once again we didn't realise until it was too late.

Have found heaps of stuff: truck loads of tent pegs; a couple of swags (probably fell off back of utes - left them there as we don't use swags); a canvas water cooler bag; plenty of kids toys; odd pieces of cutlery; minor tools; and a pocket knife. But the weirdest was a set of good clothes (neatly folded) and dress shoes beside a lagoon (not in croc country) with no-one around, no camp-site - just the clothes. Reported it to nearest cops and never heard anything more about it.

Cheers from the Moose
