Bad Battery+Poor Reception=No Contact

   Red Bull has had difficulty checking in because his temporary phone has a bad battery, and he has also had poor cell reception.  When I recently spoke with him, he could only guesstimate where he had spent the night from a couple of nights previously.

   He would have spent this night at the Knot Maul Branch Shelter or the Lynn Camp Creek, mile 558.5 or 559.5 on the A.T..  Their elevations are 2,757 feet and 2,400 feet respectively.  He would have hiked approximately 14-15 miles this day.

   We have been attempting to get in touch with him, so we could deliver his new cell phone.  His father had a window of opportunity to make the journey, but we could not contact him to know his location.
