We met up with two hikers at Trail Camp yesterday (9/25) at about 10 AM, one of whom was 77 years old. He seemed like he was OK but a little winded. We talked to them for a little while as they were considering their options of continuing on or going back to the portal. I was just wondering if anyone saw these two on the way down later on, and if the older gentleman seemed OK. His partner was wearing a red shirt.

Also, we ran across an old tan jacket with rusted buttons at the rock bridge somewhat below Trail Camp. I have a vague memory of this jacket being there last year. Is this just lost clothing or is there some kind of history here?

I didn't see the older hiker that I recall (or anyone that seemed in distress) on my way down yesterday afternoon. We left from Trail Camp around 1:30 or so. I didn't notice the shirt/jacket either - but I was rather focused on getting off the mountain.
