There really isn't that much to tell. Back when Doug, Doug, and Earlene started taking over things at the Portal, before the present building was there, I decided to hike up to Lone Pine lake for some fishing, hoping to snag a big one (but not as big as I got!). I saw what I thought was a blue tarp at the bottom of the lake. I didn't want to leave it there so I tried to snag it with my fishing line. The more I looked at it, the less it looked like a twisted up tarp. I soon realized it was a male adult body in blue jeans and nothing else. The skin was the same color as the jeans. I never made it down that trail that fast before or since! Earlene was behind the counter and I told her there was a body in Lone Pine Lake. Due to my state of mind I wasn't that coherent and she didn't understand what I was saying, but eventually she got on the radio phone (no cells at that time) and got assistance. I was later told they found a pair of boots on the shore with a suicide note in it. I try not to fish for anything thats blue now.
