As you're headed nobo up to Max Patch, we saw a bag, sleeping pad, water filter, and bug spray. We thought someone planned to cowboy camp. I thought the bug spray was strange to see in March.
The next morning it was still there but seemed to have moved towards the middle of the trail. I climbed back up to where we had camped and mentioned it to some guys who were camped close by.
My daughter and I talked it over and decided to take the gear but it was gone when we left. The guys had left 15 min before us so we think they took it.
Anyway, I found it really odd and wondered if I should notify someone. The bag was a Cabelas 30* Evader, the pad a Klymit Static V, a mini Sawyer filter, and Ben's bug spray.
Is this a common occurrence on the AT?
Would y'all have taken the gear or left it there?

Lost in the right direction.
