I can definately understand the joy of finding BOOTY, have spent some time trying to get others pieces free and have left some behind before.

I must say that I do appreciate people being a little reasonable about it and certainly was made to feel very thankful when a couple who climbed a climb after I had recently at bundaleer went out of their way to wander down to where we were later climbing to ask us if the fairly shiney cam they had found on the walk off was ours. It was and seems to have unclipped itself from my harness on the scramble off (not reclipped on properly at the end of the climb I guess, stuck in clothing or something).

Their kindness was much appreciated, especially given it was a fairly new shiney cam. Maybe they just didn't want it as it was an HB quad cam that people seem to have a love hate relationship with :)
