Blue Hydro Flask bottle with dent and hiking sticker
Description
Category: Other Miscellaneous Items. I lost my blue Hydro Flask 32 oz bottle yesterday around 3pm near the Ithaca Commons on State Street, outside the Moosewood Restaurant area. It’s a tall powder-blue bottle with a dent on the bottom-right and a black sport cap. A white 'ADK Trails' sticker is halfway up the side, and there’s a small carabiner clipped to the lid. There’s a faint coffee ring around the rim from today’s coffee, and you can tell it’s mine by the dent and sticker. This bottle is my daily carry and has sentimental value since it was a gift from my aunt. If you found it, please email [email protected]. I’d be forever grateful.

How to safely get your item back
A short checklist to protect you and the item during the handoff.
Verify the finder before meeting
- Ask them to describe a detail not shown in your listing, such as an engraving, scratch, or contents.
- Request a clear photo of the item from an angle you did not post.
- Do not pay any release, shipping, or storage fee.
- Do not share your full address until you have verified them.
Meet in a safe, public place
- Police stations, café entrances, transport hubs, and shop foyers all work.
- Meet during daylight hours where there is CCTV and foot traffic.
- Avoid private homes, car parks at night, or isolated locations.
Bring someone with you
- Tell a friend or family member where you are meeting and when.
- Share your live location with them during the handoff.
- For high-value items, consider contacting your local police station for advice first.
Keep communication on lostandfound.io
- Use the in-app message thread so there is a record if something goes wrong.
- Do not move to WhatsApp, SMS, or email until you have exchanged a verifying detail.
- Never share bank details, government ID numbers, or copies of your ID.
