Lost USB drives in Humboldt County, CA
I’m a designer who realized two USB drives were missing after leaving a cafe in Humboldt County around 9:15 p.m. on Wednesday. I last had them in my backpack near Old Town Eureka, and I retraced steps through Arcata and Eureka, asking staff and checking cars, but they haven’t turned up. The drives are in a gray silicone case with a red zipper; one has a pinecone sticker and a few personal files, while the other holds photos from recent trips. Losing them feels like losing work and memories. If you found them anywhere in Humboldt County, please let me know; I’d really like them back.
Found gym bags in Old Town Eureka.
I found these gym bags this morning after a jog along the Humboldt Bay trail. They were tucked behind a bench in the Old Town Eureka parking lot, near the waterfront promenade, around 9:15 a.m. A blue duffel and a black carry bag looked recently used, with a towel and a water bottle tucked inside. I’m posting here in the hope the owner sees this and claims them soon.
Lost terrariums near Old Town Eureka, Humboldt County
On Friday around 4:45 p.m., I realized my two terrariums were missing from a bench along the Humboldt Bay waterfront in Humboldt County, California, United States. The glass domes held tiny ferns, moss, and a couple of succulents, and one had a little air plant peeking out. I’d been chatting with friends and took a quick photo when the breeze knocked the tote off the chair. I searched the area around Old Town Eureka, but they weren’t there. These terrariums matter to me because they were part of a gift for a friend. If you found them, please check this listing on the site.
Studs lost in Humboldt County
Hi, I’m Grace Miller. I realized this afternoon around 4:15 p.m. that one of my silver stud earrings was missing while I was walking through Arcata Plaza in Arcata, near the gazebo and the fountain. They’re simple, curved posts with a tiny pearl at the center; one is a little more worn than the other. I’ve retraced from Redwood Coffee to the Humboldt County Courthouse, but I’m afraid they vanished somewhere between there and the Old Town area. I’m hoping someone picked them up and kept them safe until I can get them back to my ears.
Found medication on Eureka sidewalk
This morning around 9:15 am I found a bottle of medication on the sidewalk outside Old Town Eureka, near the Boardwalk at the corner of 2nd and G Streets. It’s a brown glass bottle with a blue cap and a white label, but the label is partly peeled. I know someone out there needs this back, and I kept it safe and out of sight while we figure out the owner. I’m hoping the rightful owner will see this listing and reach out through the site.
Found Holiday Decorations in Humboldt County
Hi, I'm Sofia Patel. I found these holiday decorations this morning around 9:15 AM along the sidewalk by the Humboldt Bay waterfront near Old Town Eureka. It’s a tangled mix—twinkling multicolored lights, a glittery star, and a small ceramic Santa. I scanned the area and asked a few pedestrians, but no one claimed them and the crowd moved on before the sun got higher. They look like they belong to someone who loves the season, and I’d feel better knowing they’re back with their owner.
FOUND: Sculptures in Humboldt County
I found these sculptures behind a vendor tent near Arcata Plaza around 6:45 PM on Friday. The pieces are metal, about two to three feet tall, with a rust-orange patina and glass accents that caught the streetlights. I was walking from the Redwood National and State Parks entrance toward the plaza when I spotted them tucked behind a crate at the edge of the sidewalk. They felt personal—like a small, private collection someone might miss after a pop-up show. I moved them to a sheltered bench nearby and waited a moment, hoping the owner would see this listing.
Found violin near Arcata Plaza
I was wandering along the Eureka waterfront around 7:15 p.m. on Saturday when I spotted a violin case tucked behind a bench near the Arcata Plaza. The varnish looked a little dull from the mist, and the bow was still in its sleeve. I picked it up and checked inside, but there was no name. I'm posting here in case someone high and dry has lost a cherished instrument, and I hope to help reunite it with its owner.
LOST: Hats in Humboldt County
Hello, I am Noah Kim. I was at Arcata Plaza around 3:30 PM yesterday, browsing the weekend market with my two felt hats, one charcoal gray and one tan with a feather in the band, tucked into the back pocket of my jacket. A gust rolled up from Humboldt Bay and knocked them from the bench, and by the time I turned back they were gone. These hats are not just clothing; they are travel memories and a little luck I carry with me on road trips up the redwoods. If you spotted them around Arcata Plaza or near the Humboldt County Library, please keep them safe.
Pins lost in Old Town Eureka, Humboldt County
I LOST my enamel pins. I was wandering through Old Town Eureka around 3:15 p.m. last Sunday when my pins slipped from my denim jacket and vanished into the crowd. The set includes a lighthouse pin and a Humboldt map pin—tiny reminders of our North Coast road trip. I have walked the sidewalks from the Carson Mansion to the plaza, checked the market stalls twice, and asked nearby shop staff, but they are gone. Those pins mean a lot to me, and I am hoping they are simply misplaced somewhere nearby. If anyone found them, please leave a note on the site.

Found flute near Arcata Plaza in Humboldt County
I was walking around Arcata Plaza last Saturday around 3:15 PM when I spotted a silver flute resting on a bench near the gazebo. The case was a touch scuffed, and the lip plate had faint initials carved into it, like J.S. I picked it up carefully, checked for any obvious personal notes, and carried it to the Humboldt County Library’s lost-and-found desk so it could be reunited with its owner. I’m posting this in hopes the rightful owner sees it and recognizes the markings and that worn case. It felt like a small, hopeful moment in a busy day.
Found photographs near Arcata Plaza, Humboldt County.
I found these photographs on Thursday, around 4:15 PM, tucked beneath a bench at the Arcata Plaza in Humboldt County. They look like a personal collection—an old portrait, a seaside shot, and a map with handwritten notes. I sat with them for a moment, feeling a tug of curiosity and responsibility, like I was holding a window into someone’s memories. I kept them safe, not wanting them to blow away in the coastal breeze, and I hope the owner recognizes them and is glad they’re not lost anymore.
Found toasters in Humboldt County, California
This morning around 9:15 a.m. I was wandering through Old Town Eureka and spotted two toasters resting on a bench outside a cafe on 2nd Street. They were clean and looked recently unused, with a little crumb of coffee still in the air. I figured someone must be missing them, so I picked them up and brought them here. If these belong to you, please reply through the site so we can arrange a proper return.
Lost: Equipment for Various Sports
On Sunday at 3:15 p.m., I left Arcata Community Park near the I Street entrance after a casual pickup game and realized I’d forgotten my equipment bag by the bleachers. It carries gear for various sports—a soccer ball, a tennis racket, knee pads, and a worn backpack with a cracked zipper. The redwoods rustled above as I hiked back, shoulders heavy with disappointment and stubborn hope that someone picked it up and kept it safe. If you saw a bag by the basketball courts or the parking area, please give a thought to the person who relies on it for weekend games.
