Lost Passports in the High Rockies, CO
I realized my passports were missing around 7:15 p.m. yesterday after unloading groceries outside the Alpine Market on Main Street in the High Rockies region. I had them in my wallet while I was inside the cafe, and I think I left them on the counter or in the cart. They’re essential for an upcoming trip next week, and I’m anxious about getting them replaced quickly. I’m staying in Leadville and will be around the town square and the library today and tomorrow, hoping someone found them and kept them safe. If you’ve seen them, please keep them safe nearby until I can reclaim them.
Found puppies near Twin Lakes, High Rockies
I spotted three small puppies wandering near the Twin Lakes trailhead around 10:15 AM today. They looked dusty from the trail, but otherwise healthy, with one wearing a red collar and tiny bell. They followed me as I approached slowly, so I kept them close in a shaded spot off the main path and offered water from my bottle. It was a quiet moment on the mountains, and I checked for owners or a camp sign, but there was nothing. I’d really like to help reunite them with their family or caretaker. Please use the site to coordinate a safe handoff.”
LOST: Paintings in the High Rockies
On Saturday around 3:25 pm, I was taking a break at the Turquoise Lake overlook in the High Rockies and left two small paintings resting on a rock while I adjusted my pack. When I looked back, they were gone. The works are framed in simple dark wood: one shows a jagged snow peak above a pine-fringed valley; the other glows with a sunset over a meadow. They’re irreplaceable to me—a gift from my grandfather—and I’m sick with worry each mile I hike without them. I’ve retraced the path and asked a few hikers, but no luck yet. If you’ve seen them, please let the site know so we can bring them home.
Lost Hand Tools in the High Rockies
I spent the afternoon yesterday, around 4:45 p.m., helping a friend fix a dented toolbox behind the Stanley Hotel in Estes Park. We were unloading gear on a bench by the visitor center and then took a short walk along Main Street. When we came back, my hand tools were gone—hammer, adjustable wrench, and a well-used pliers. They matter to me for trail fixes and camping setups, and I’m anxious about replacing them before next month’s trip. If someone found them and left them somewhere safe by the Stanley Hotel courtyard, I’d be forever grateful.
CDs lost on Willow Creek Trailhead, High Rockies.
I was out hiking at 2:10 PM on Sunday and realized my CDs weren’t in my backpack anymore after a quick rest at the Willow Creek Trailhead in the High Rockies. The case is a matte black with a slightly warped spine from sun, and the discs range from classic rock to indie. I’m not sure how far they could’ve blown away in the mountain breeze, but I’d love to retrace the patch of ground by the trailhead to find them. If you’ve picked them up or seen them, I’d appreciate them returning through the site so I can get back to the road I love.
lost: Student ID at High Rockies trailhead
I was ready to head home after a quick hike and grabbed a bite at the trailhead cafe near the High Rockies Visitor Center around 7:45 p.m. last Friday. I must’ve left my Student ID on the bench there while I checked my map for the return hike. It’s more than a card—it's my campus access and official ID, and losing it has me worried about class, deadlines, and travel plans. If you found it, thank you for keeping it safe and for returning it through the site so I can sort everything out.
Found photographs near Alpine Visitor Center, High Rockies.
I found these photographs yesterday around 11:20 AM, wedged inside an old envelope on a rock by the Alpine Visitor Center along Trail Ridge Road in the High Rockies, Colorado. They show a family on a snowy hike, a dog running along a trail, and a few snapshots of the blue sky over the peaks. My first thought was that someone is missing these memories, and I’m glad to help return them. The faces are a mystery, and I didn’t want to crop or keep them; I’d rather they find the owner through this site.
Found black leather briefcase with initials
I found it this afternoon around 2:15 pm behind the Alpine Market on Sunset Boulevard in High Rockies. It's a black calfskin briefcase with a pebbled texture, silver-toned hardware, and a slightly scuffed corner from a travel bag. Inside there's a laminated family photo in the front pocket and a tiny brass compass keychain stamped with 'J.R.' on the zipper pull. I know this probably matters to someone—I'll hang on to it and help verify ownership if you claim it.
Blue hardcover atlas with mountain photo
I lost my blue hardcover atlas, a National Geographic High Rockies edition, yesterday around 3pm near the High Rockies Public Library on Pine Street, outside the bike racks by the entrance. The cover shows snow-capped peaks and a small red edition sticker; the spine is cracked and the corners are worn from travel. Inside the front cover I pressed a pine needle from a hike and left a yellow sticky note with my initials 'AY' on it; there’s a dog-eared page around 210 and a tiny pencil mark on page 138. This atlas was a gift from my grandmother who loved mountains, and it's irreplaceable for my fieldwork, so I really need it back. If you found it, I’d be grateful to recover it—I'll be at Summit View Cafe or the library front desk in the evenings this week.
Navy knit scarf with initials and silver thread
Hey there, I lost my navy knit scarf yesterday around 3pm near the gondola plaza behind the High Rockies Visitor Center on Parkside Street. It's a hand-knit merino scarf, about 65 inches long, with a thin silver thread woven along the edges. I stitched my initials 'PP' in a small monogram on the inner left corner, and there's a tiny pinecone-shaped coffee stain near the far corner from a cafe stop yesterday. It was a gift from my grandmother and feels really sentimental—I've been chilly in the mountain air and truly need it back. If anyone found it, please email me at [email protected].

Looking for a set of keys lost either Friday Night in Denver or Saturday in Boulder. Set of keys with small blue carabiner. A needlepoint fob, with hunting image. Long silver key on key ring. $50 reward
Grey knit beanie with pom-pom and PP initials
I lost my grey knit beanie yesterday around 4pm outside Mountain Market on Pine Street, right near the gondola entrance at Summit Plaza in High Rockies. It's a NorthPeak grey acrylic beanie with a black faux-fur pom-pom and a small mountain logo stitched on the cuff. Inside the cuff there's initials 'PP' and the knit is a bit stretched. It was a gift from my sister and it's really comforting on hikes, so it has sentimental value. If anyone found it, please reach out—I'd be so grateful to get it back.
Navy Brooklinen duvet cover with white piping
Hey there, I lost my navy Brooklinen duvet cover (queen size) with white piping yesterday around 3pm near High Rockies Market on Main Street. It's part of the Luxe Sateen line, incredibly soft, and the zipper pull has the Brooklinen logo in silver. There's a small coffee stain near the top edge and a tiny snag along the left corner where the seam has started to fray. It was a gift from a friend and has sentimental value to me; I really need it back. If anyone found it, please message me here—I'd be forever grateful.
Orange bearded dragon, last seen near High Rockies Pet Supply
I'm worried about Ember, my orange-and-tan bearded dragon. She's about 8 inches long without the tail and has a distinctive dark stripe down her back plus a tiny white speck on the left hind leg. I last saw her yesterday around 3pm near the High Rockies Pet Supply on Main Street, outside the shop between Summit Coffee and the bus stop by the old Town Hall. Ember is usually calm but curious, and she eats crickets and greens and basks on warm rocks. If anyone spots a sun-warmed dragon hiding under a park bench or behind planters by the shopping plaza, please message me—she means the world to my family and we'd be incredibly grateful to have her back.
Violin in black case with bow
I found a violin this afternoon around 2:15pm behind Summit Market on Main Street in High Rockies. It’s a full-size violin with a warm sunburst finish and a slightly worn chin rest. The case is a black hard-shell type with a small dent on the bottom edge, and a red rosin bag tucked inside the outer pocket. A mountain-goat sticker sits on the case, and inside there’s a label that reads 'Stentor Student II'—looks like a student model. I know this violin probably means a lot to someone; I’d like to get it back to its owner. If this is yours, please email [email protected] and we can arrange a pickup near Town Hall or the library.
