Another Death in Baxter

In a copyright Associated Press story that "may not be published, broadcast, rewritten, or redistributed" (but which, presumably, may be commented on) which appeared online today in the Portland Press Herald, the Maine State Police identified the human body parts found in Baxter State Park as those of Robert Taylor, late of Bangor. Taylor had been missing for months. His remains were apparently found in or near a campsite, including a semi-erect tent and some supplies. The medical examiner hadn't pinned down cause or date of death, and the investigation is on-going.

This comes very shortly after the rockslide death on the Cathedral Trail at Katahdin.

Not a good summer so far in Maine.
