LOST: Holiday Decorations near Mendocino Village
I left the holiday decorations on the porch of my friend's cottage on Main Street in Mendocino around 7:45 p.m. last Sunday, and when I looked again the next morning they were gone. The box contained string lights, red bows, and a garland that glowed softly in the porch light. I walked the short distance toward Mendocino Headlands State Park and checked the nearby shops, but no sign. The decorations meant a lot to us during our stay in Mendocino County, and I’d love to have them back for our Christmas setup.
lost utensils near Little River Inn, Mendocino
I was wrapping up a sunset picnic outside the Little River Inn along Highway 1 around 6:15 PM last Friday. I laid out a small metal utensil tin, and by the time I stood to put everything away, the utensils vanished. It’s a simple stainless set—fork, knife, and spoon—with a blue tape stripe and a tiny dent in the spoon. I’m hoping a kind passerby picked them up and kept them safe; those tools feel like a little piece of home and I’d hate to start cooking without them.
Lost: Tank Accessories in Mendocino County
Hi, I’m Avery Collins. I lost a bag with my tank accessories—the heater, an extra filter, and a bundle of hoses—somewhere along the Glass Beach parking lot in Fort Bragg around 6:15 PM last Friday. I had pulled over to snap a quick photo and must have forgotten it when I got back in the truck. The bag is blue with a white zipper and a small dent in the lid. I rely on these for my aquarium setup, and I’m hoping someone found them and kept them safe somewhere in Mendocino County.
Lost Saxophones after show on Fort Bragg Main St.
I’m a local saxophonist and I left my Saxophones after a small show on Fort Bragg’s Main Street around 2:35 p.m. Friday. They were in a black hard case with two horns, the necks peeking out, and I’m sure I left them near the backstage area behind the venue by the harbor. Those instruments are how I tell my stories on stage, and I’m frantic about letting them disappear into someone else’s hands. If they’re safe somewhere, I hope they’ll be turned in to the venue’s lost-and-found so I can get back to playing soon.
Found: Studs near Glass Beach
I was walking the Mendocino County coast, around 11:30 a.m. this Saturday, when I spotted a small pair of silver studs tucked under a driftwood log near the Glass Beach overlook in Fort Bragg. They looked recently dropped, not buried in sand, so I tucked them into my pocket and scanned the area for a passerby who might be missing them, but no one appeared. The studs are delicate, silver with tiny clear stones, probably worn for a special day. It felt good to return a small bit of joy to someone who might be anxious about losing it. I hope this helps connect them back to their owner.
Lost Parrots in Mendocino County, CA
LOST my two parrots late Friday night, around 7:45 PM, from the enclosed yard near the Mendocino County Fairgrounds. I last saw them perched on the back deck railing and now I’ve walked the yard, called their names, and checked every perch inside the house. They’re two bright parrots—one with blue on its wings and the other with yellow patches—and they answer to simple phrases I taught them. If anyone spotted them near Mendocino Headlands State Park or along the coastal trail, please keep them safe—their family misses them dearly.
Found sports equipment near Glass Beach.
I was walking along the Fort Bragg waterfront near the Glass Beach parking lot on Sunday around 3:20 PM when I found a bag stuffed with Equipment for Various Sports. Inside was a green duffel, a basketball, several jerseys, a few cones, and even a lacrosse stick, plus water bottles stamped with a local league. It looked like someone’s weekend training pack had been left behind in the sea breeze while they grabbed a quick bite. I felt a wave of relief thinking about the person who might be worried, and I’m glad to help reunite them with their gear.
Found GPS devices in Mendocino County
I was walking along the Mendocino coast near Glass Beach in Fort Bragg around 6:15 p.m. last Friday when I spotted a small zippered pouch snagged on a driftwood log. Inside were several GPS devices with chargers and a loose car key fob. They look recently used and there aren’t obvious labels. I picked them up and kept them safe, hoping the owner will see this and claim them through the site. The coast can be unpredictable, and I want to help reunite someone with their gear.
Found Student ID near Mendocino County campus
Friday around 4:30 p.m., I found a Student ID card lying on the sidewalk near Oceanview Market on Ukiah's Main Street in Mendocino County. The card shows a photo and a name that looked like 'Alex Kim' at a casual glance; I didn't pry and kept it safe. It can be panic-inducing to lose something official, and I felt a responsibility to help get it back where it belongs. If this ID is yours, please check the site and verify the details to reclaim it.
Lost travel visas in Mendocino County
I realized I was missing my travel visas this morning after a meeting in Ukiah around 4:30 PM. I was driving along Highway 1 and stopped briefly at the Glass Beach overlook in Fort Bragg to stretch my legs, and that’s when I last recall having them in a blue folder on the passenger seat. Since then, I’ve retraced my steps and searched the car, the motel lobby, and a few rest stops with no luck. They’re essential documents and I’m anxious about being unable to travel without them.
Lost sheet music near Glass Beach
Hi, I'm Emily Carter. I lost a bundle of sheet music I was carrying after a small community jam at Glass Beach on Sunday around 6:20 PM. It's a worn blue binder with a seagull doodle on the cover and a few notes circled in red. I must have left it on a bench near the Glass Beach parking lot, and now I feel the missing melodies slipping away with it.
Lost Nintendo Switch OLED in gray case
I lost my Nintendo Switch OLED model this afternoon around 3pm near Redwood Coffee on Main Street in Ukiah, Mendocino County. It’s in a gray protective case with Neon Blue and Neon Red Joy-Cons, and there’s a panda sticker on the back plus a screen protector with a small scratch in the lower left corner. The console has sentimental value for me—it's how I unwind after long shifts, and I had saved a few indie games there that really mean a lot. If anyone found it, I’d really appreciate getting it back; you can reach me at [email protected].
Gray Nike running shoes, size 9, teal accents
I lost my gray Nike running shoes yesterday around 3pm outside the Mendocino Hotel on Main Street in Mendocino, Mendocino County. They're men's size 9, fairly well used but still in decent shape, gray with teal accents and a white sole. The left heel has a blue duct-tape patch and the right sole has a tiny red thread stitched into it—easy to spot if you're looking. They were a gift from my sister, so they mean a lot to me and I really need them back for daily runs. If you found them, please drop a note here or share any info you have; I can arrange a pickup.
Found paperback mystery near Glass Beach parking
I found this navy blue paperback mystery novel this afternoon around 4:15 pm in the Glass Beach parking area behind Cypress Street along the Fort Bragg coastline in Mendocino County. It's a standard 6-by-9 inch paperback, about 320 pages, with a coffee ring on the back and slightly bent corners. The front cover features a lighthouse drawing and a small seashell sticker that sticks out a bit. Inside the front cover there's a pencil note reading 'For Jamie—enjoy!' I figured the owner is likely missing it, and I'd be happy to help reunite them with it.
Navy tuxedo jacket with satin lapels
I found a navy tuxedo jacket with satin lapels this afternoon around 2:15pm in the parking lot behind the Mendocino Hotel on Main Street. It's a Brooks Brothers, men's size 40R, in good condition with just a couple of light wear marks and a charcoal silk pocket square tucked into the breast pocket. Inside the left pocket there's a brass monogrammed keychain with the initials 'A.J.' and a label that reads 'Brooks Brothers 40R.' If this is yours, shoot me a message and we can sort out a quick pickup somewhere in Mendocino County.
