Lost Holiday Decorations near Phoenicia, Catskills
I lost my holiday decorations after hosting a small family gathering in a rustic cabin on Main Street in Phoenicia, NY, around 7:30 PM on December 18. A silver garland with pinecone accents and a glittery red-and-green banner toppled from the mantle and rolled behind the sofa by the fireplace. I retraced every corner, the fireplace glow catching on tinsel as the clock ticked and the snow began to fall outside the window. If they wandered off, I’d like to think they slipped somewhere safe along the quiet roads of the Catskills, perhaps near the Esopus Creek trailhead or the old stone bridge by the post office.
Lost sandals near Phoenicia Diner
I was hiking the Phil's Lookout Trail in the Catskills near Phoenicia, NY, around 5:15 p.m. last Friday, and I stepped off the wooden boardwalk by the Phoenicia Diner and realized my sandals were missing. They’re tan with a simple strap, the kind I wear on every weekend hike. I retraced my steps, checking the pine needles and the mud where my pack rubbed my hip, but the trail is busy and the scent of pine is loud. I left the trailhead feeling hopeful but anxious, already replaying where I might have dropped them.
Lost drapes from Catskills home
I was tidying the living room of my Catskills cabin on Friday at 7:15 p.m. when I realized the olive drapes with a burgundy border had vanished from their usual rod by the window. The window was closed and nothing else seems out of place, but the room feels less like home without them. They’re not just fabrics; they soften the winter light and give the room a sense of privacy. If you happened to spot them around Route 28 near Phoenicia, I’d be grateful for any sign of them.
Lost shirts in the Catskills
I realized my shirts were missing Friday afternoon after helping unload a truck at the Catskills Community Center. The last moment I am sure of is 4:52 PM near Woodstock Village Green, with the sun slipping behind the trees. There is a gray button-down, a navy polo, and a few brightly colored tees - my entire work wardrobe for the season. It is more than laundry; those shirts carry memories of weeknight shifts and weekend hikes, and I hope someone found them and kept them safe until returning them.
Lost Canines near Kaaterskill Falls
I lost my Canines on the North-South Lake trail around 9:40 a.m. today. They slipped the leash when a cyclist sped past the pine grove near the old stone bridge. The mist hung over the lake as I called their names, but they vanished into the evergreens. These dogs are part of my daily life and have steadied me through tough times, so losing them today felt like losing a piece of myself. I retraced steps along the boardwalk by the fishing dock and near the maples where the leaves are turning. If you’ve seen them, please bring them home to the truck; I’m worried sick and just want them safe.
Found DVDs on Main Street, Catskills, near the library
I was out for a Sunday stroll along Main Street in the Catskills around 3:15 p.m. when I spotted a tote behind a bench outside the Whistling Kettle cafe. Inside were several DVDs in bright cases, mostly sci-fi titles and a handful of rom-coms, with a blue sticker on one. I left the tote on the bench and walked a few feet away to check the name on a flyer, hoping the owner would see this post too. If these are yours, the site can help reunite you with the finder.
Lost dresses near Catskills Community Center
3:05 p.m. last Sunday, I was helping set up for a small charity event at the Catskills Community Center on Main Street in Saugerties when I discovered my dresses were nowhere to be found. They hung on a portable rack next to the folding chairs, one a pale pink gown and the other a navy beaded dress, both with delicate hems. The light filtered through the room in soft rectangles, and my heart tightened at the thought of losing them before the weekend. I’ve poured months into these pieces for the wedding, and I’m desperate to find them and bring them home.
Found power tools near Maple Street Hardware, Catskills.
On Saturday at 9:15 a.m., I found a bundle of power tools behind the loading dock at Maple Street Hardware along Route 28 in the Catskills. A blue toolbox, a red drill, and a frayed extension cord were tucked in a corner near a stack of pallets, as if someone had dashed away in a hurry. They looked recently used, with fresh sawdust clinging to the handles and a faint whiff of pine dust in the air. I'm posting this in hopes the owner will see it here and claim their gear through the site.
Lost Student ID near Kaaterskill Falls, Catskills.
I was hiking toward Kaaterskill Falls around 6:20 p.m. last Sunday when I realized my student ID was missing from my jacket pocket. It's a blue plastic card with my name and a campus logo, a small scrap of paper with my student number. I rely on it for campus access and meal plans, and losing it has me worried about showing up to class. If someone finds it, I hope they can return it through the site.
Found: Travel Visas in the Catskills
Earlier today, around 2:30 p.m., I was hiking along the North-South Lake trail in the Catskills when I spotted a folder lying on a rock near the trailhead. It contained Travel Visas for several countries and a few official papers, all neatly organized. I picked it up and kept it safe, thinking the owner would need it back soon. The cover has handwriting in blue ink and a light-blue elastic strap, easy to recognize. I hope the rightful owner can reclaim these important documents and that they’re back with their person soon.
Lost: Belts in Catskills, NY
I was hiking in the Catskills today and realized my Belts were missing around 2:30 p.m. near the North-South Lake overlook, after a scramble along the Esopus Creek trail. They are two brown leather belts with brass buckles, well worn from daily use. I have retraced the North-South Lake area and checked the parking lot by Kaaterskill Falls, but nothing turned up. If you found them, I would really appreciate returning them so I can stop worrying about the trip ahead.
Lost travel adapters near Phoenicia Diner, Catskills
I had my travel adapters in a small pouch when I stopped for coffee at the Phoenicia Diner around 8:15 p.m. last Friday after a day of hiking through the Catskills. I must have left them on the counter while I paid and chatted with the waitress about the view from the porch. The place smelled of hot coffee and apple pie, and the booths glowed amber as the sunset faded outside. I'm hoping someone picked them up and held onto them, because I rely on those little adapters to charge my phone while I'm on the road.
Found radios near the trailhead, Catskills.
I found a pair of radios tucked behind a rock near the Elm Street trailhead in Catskills. I was hiking the 9W trail last Sunday around 3:20 p.m. when I spotted them; they look used but functional, with a battered black case and dusty dials that remind me of old camping trips. I checked nearby for a name tag or charger, but there was nothing obvious, so I brought them to a safe spot and decided to post this find. It feels good to return something that might mean a lot to someone.
Leopard gecko with orange spots, missing
I lost my leopard gecko, Niko, yesterday around 3pm. He's about 3 inches long from head to tail, orange with black speckles and a slightly kinked tail from a past fall, plus a tiny white scar on his left hind toe. He lives in a small glass terrarium with a blue heat lamp and mossy cave décor, and I think he slipped under the sofa or slipped out the back door near the Phoenicia Diner on Main Street in Phoenicia, Catskills. If you spot him, drop me a note here—I'm really worried, he's been with me for years and means a lot to me.
Silver bracelet with moon charm lost near Woodstock
I lost my silver bracelet with a moon charm yesterday around 3pm. It's a slim, 8-inch bracelet with a tiny ruby set in the moon charm and a delicate maple-leaf engraving on the clasp. I was walking along Tinker Street near the Woodstock Diner in Woodstock, Catskills, after stopping at the farmers market. The bracelet has sentimental value — it was a gift from my grandmother and I wore it every day; I really need it back. If anyone found it, please reach out. I'll gladly describe more details and offer a small reward.
