***edited and raised the reward***
Hello from Texas,
We are hoping to gather some assistance from the geocaching community. I had spoken to Woodwalker9; he granted me permission to post this request on the forums.
We recently launched a high altitude balloon project from North Texas. The flight went well however, the balloon travel went much farther than planned. We took the 5 hour drive to the location. But, we lost too much daylight to proceed.
The balloon has a red and green payload (neoprene lunch bags) with a red parachute.
Are hopes are to gather high altitude pictures, and pictures of the curvature of the earth.
We have gps coordinates and are offering a $200 reward for finding the payload.
