Look through the footage and see if you recognize anyone in it. If someone tries to claim that it's their GoPro, ask them what they filmed that day to make sure it's actually theirs. Help someone out and something good will happen to you

Always try to get it back to the person...just a dick move to steal a $400+ dollar camera from someone.

I lost 2 Go pros...one skiing and another fell into a lake so I feel the pain of losing one.

One time, I had my gopro in my jacket pocket and instead of falling out, the pocket ripped open at the bottom and the GoPro fell out. Didn't realize it until the end of the day and never got it back

:/

First off, if you're a real gypsy you won't take a GoPro cause you have no need. Also just return it.

Having lost mine because a fatass liftie didn't bump the chair and the bar fell taking it off my head, I would return it. I was 13 and 2 months before had bought it with my own money. I had no business filming anything I was doing on the mountain because I was a very unimpressive skier at the time, but I know the pain.

If you wouldn't return a gopro you should reconsider your life

Found a hero4 at the top of a lift first day of the season, promptly returned it to the head lifty. I think the karma gods paid me back due to having a couple of friends both losing their phones from yard sale crashes and picking them back up at guest services
