Some kind of weather tracking balloon?  Make sure the tracker is charged, maybe the owner will find you.  I'd post something on CL like go pros and GPS found.

PRETTY ODD,,, Just reminded me I was out scouting for Javelina this year and found a side window out of an airplane!!!! small plane of some sort, it only broke into 3 pieces and still had the emergency push here stickers on it..it was in the middle of nowhere.

The tracker was still charged I left it there I’ll be back out next weekend and I’ll check if it’s been picked up or not

I used to launch balloons in the USAF, thousands of them. The rawinsonde looks like...2560.jpg.d6738e393cf36ab33ad4e4fcca0a9f66.jpg

In the late 80sand early 90s, we probably found 5 of the balloons like Edge has shown.  One was plastic and the others had a styrofoam package with sensors and instruments inside.  All were in Prairie Dog country in Navajo and Apache counties.
