Due to the fact that the Hell's Canyon area is located a considerable distance from the possible flight path of the aircraft in captioned case, flying from Seattle to Reno, the significance of this information is not known to the Atlanta office, accordingly, no leads are being set out in the Portland area at this time. Leads are being designated for the Detroit office to determine if the bow found by [REDACTED] is registered.
