What does the scan show?
A person reads every report. Corrections are made by hand, to the data — titles, dates, names, which pages belong together — never to the scans, and they can take a while to appear.

For information, on 3/5/80, [REDACTED], [REDACTED], Vancouver, Washington, phone number [REDACTED] tele- phonically contacted the Vancouver RA and advised as follows:
Approximately 6½ years ago he discovered two para- chutes approximately 50 to 100 feet apart "near the area previously searched by the FBI". [REDACTED] declined to furnish the location of the parachutes as he wants to negotiate and receive a reward before identifying the area. [REDACTED] further stated that one parachute is white and the other is orange, and when he first observed them he thought they were "weather balloon shutes".
---
[REDACTED] advised that this area can be reached by four-wheel drive vehicle to within a quarter mile of the lo- cation of the parachutes. From there, individuals with machetes could proceed through the forest to the exact loca- tion within two or three hours.
---
[REDACTED] stated that he has not since returned to the area, and is not aware if the parachutes would still be there.
