" After losing his memory card in late May 2007, and me finding it in late July 2007, and after posting the first pictures on November 10th, 2007, it took Giles, the memory card owner, 16 days to find his pictures on the web.
Actually, Giles had some help from his friends. A friend of his who is in Cairo, Egypt was looking to show her friends pictures of the Black Bear Coffee House. She found my pictures, and recognized the girl in the photo. She then looked through the rest and realized these were photos Giles had taken. She immediately contacted him.
Unfortunately, at the time GIles contacted me on November 26th, I had lost the memory card in my own room. Finally when moving I found the card and dropped Giles an email. We met up on December 19th at Platinum Jaxx in downtown Anchorage where I bought him a few beers for the hardships he may have endured.
Giles was very understanding of what I had done and said that he was rather amazed at the work I put in to finding out everything I could about the last two years of his life.
It seems when we first made contact via email we both went through a rollercoaster ride of emotions. He was furious, then OK with it, I was OK with it, but then felt overwhelmingly guilty for exposing the life of someone I didn't even know.
We eventually came to the conclusion that what I had done had served the purpose of Giles relocating his lost memory card, so everything came out in the wash.
Giles was a very good sport about it all and I got to hear about how he and his friend did actually make it to Into the Wild's Bus #142, even after he lost his memory card. What had happened was that his camera and memory card gotten wet while crossing the Teklanika River. He put the memory card out to dry and forgot about it when he left.
As for the future, only time will tell if we ever speak again. I think we both left on good terms. I'm glad I was finally able to get his card back to him.
The entire ordeal from Giles losing the memory card on the Stampede Trail to my finding it and returning it to him at Platinum Jaxx in Anchorage took about 6 - 7 months.
Not bad for something lost in the middle of nowhere.
Praise be to thee, internet. " - CerMakAlot, on 08/23/2008, -4/+92Seems like the dude had a good time. With many ladies.

- Dabaum, on 08/23/2008, -3/+69The whole premise of this project seems kind of ***** up. These people had no choice of whether or not the world take a peek into their lives. Although they would probably post all of them all on facebook.
- sKiLLa182, on 08/24/2008, -1/+61How do you know when there's a pilot in the bar?
Don't worry, he'll tell you. - inactive, on 08/24/2008, -11/+71"The selection put up has been censored for the safety of whoever the girls might be who may have made some bad decisions."
Buried.
Grow a pair. Learn to share. - inactive, on 08/24/2008, -6/+57nice boobs
- inactive, on 08/23/2008, -3/+45That was great...
It seems his buddy enjoyed being half naked but also needed a lot of bug repellent or sun screen.
A winner of a line from the descriptions.. - staystellar, on 08/24/2008, -3/+33is it just me or that bush in the picture of "the random mountain" look like a t-rex?

I hereby revoke this man's internets for 1 year. - Motodog, on 08/24/2008, -5/+32You can run the N number of the aircraft through the FAA database and find who owns it. Make contact and go from there, no need to publish this guys personal pics on the net when you have an ID#. Hasn't CSI taught you anything?

- BlackSheep720, on 08/24/2008, -4/+25damn, that giles is a ***** pimp. fool has a new girl every single night!
- inactive, on 08/24/2008, -1/+21You mean a pic of people at a nude beach at a resolution of 2576 x 1932
- wilf_brim, on 08/24/2008, -4/+23NSFW pictures removed from set. Buried.

- Motodog, on 08/24/2008, -3/+19"Go from there" means checking rental and flight logs and asking the owner/flight school about the man. With his little chicky female passenger, most old horny instructors would recognize the girl right away. Pilots are cocky and arrogant. I know because I'm also one.
- stopsucking, on 08/24/2008, -4/+19Buried due to my excessive yawning.
- 8randon, on 08/24/2008, -1/+15not a "mother-load".. but there's a pic of people at a nude beach
- inactive, on 08/24/2008, -4/+18Maybe the owner of the lost memory card got eaten by a grizzly bear?
- BlackSheep720, on 08/24/2008, -5/+19he posted the pics so that the whole world could find out about him. in addition, a large portion of planes in the sky are rented (i would know, being a private pilot), so it is unlikely that our man in the photos owns the plane. geez, didn't CSI teach you ANYTHING???
- ligyron, on 08/24/2008, -3/+17Stalker much?
- rypic7, on 08/24/2008, -1/+15"Praise be to thee, internet."

- UltraMegaFilms, on 08/24/2008, -1/+14Yeah, that chick's mound was at least 5 pixels high. Wicked!
- accn112, on 08/24/2008, -2/+14Hold your clicks a moment please...
Flickr has the hiccups. We're looking into the problem right now.
OH ***** WE BROKE FLICKR - harlowsmonkeys, on 08/24/2008, -0/+12I don't consider a beach with one nude woman and about a hundred clothed people to be a nude beach.
- vinibinini, on 08/24/2008, -3/+13Hmm maybe you didn't read the comment above you.
It was posted over an hour before yours.... - lis880, on 08/24/2008, -0/+9wheres the uncensored version?
- Tehrab, on 08/24/2008, -1/+10If you ride a bike, are a pilot and appear to at ease around chicks, you would be a pimp too.
- soaptray, on 08/24/2008, -6/+15Why is this on the front page?

- inactive, on 08/25/2008, -3/+9I fully agree. Who the ***** gave this ***** permission to post these pictures of someone else and their friends. Strikes me as down right creepy.
- falser, on 08/24/2008, -4/+10Apparently there were, but they were "censored".
- DaviDaviDaviD, on 08/24/2008, -2/+8Looks like the dude had a great night and day out. Great set.
