| Yesterday afternoon, someone stole a white revolution taco fold crash pad with a black top from our bouldering session at Horsetooth Reservoir. If anyone sees this pad around either Horsetooth, Carter Lake, or any of the surrounding areas, please call them out, and msg me as soon as ya can. I've been climbing for 8 years, and never had anything like this happen before! I am very disappointed, but would be delighted to hear any info regarding this. The pad is older, and very beat up, but there shouldn't be too many of these same pads around, its over 5 years old. Anyhow, I understand if it was a mistake, please send me a message and I would love to get it back! Thanks for your help, LTD. |  FLAG |

| Any description on the thief? How'd it happen? Did you top out on something only to come back down and find your pad gone? |  FLAG |

| Unfortunately, I have no description on the theif. We were climbing at the eliminator boulder and had a decent size crew. When we were moving on, a few friends of ours asked to leave the pad so they could continue with their session, claiming they would bring it to us when finished. They forgot, and half an hour later when I went down to grab it, it was gone. We searched the entire reservoir asking everyone but noone had seen it. |  FLAG |

| This sounds more like someone came upon the unattended pad and assumed it was forgotten/abandoned. You might have a good chance of getting it back given that. Good luck. |  FLAG |

"Never ascribe to malice that which is adequately explained by incompetence." You said it's old and beat up...odds are someone just thought it was left behind. Regardless, that's some sketchy shiz. |  FLAG |

| Livinthedream, What's your e-mail? I can make a lost and found post on the Fococlimbing.com blog. Should have a pretty good chance of getting it back through our site. |  FLAG |
