I found one of those magnetic base furneral markers they put on cars during the procession to the cemetery. The Camelback has webing on the back side that I put the marker base in. When I was in the drops the purple flag was pointing straight up and flapping in the breeze.
Well the hammer was an obvious find. Another rider obviously droped it.
