He had male-pattern baldness and a full beard. The hair on his chin was gray, but the rest of his hair was brown, Focha said.
The man wore prescription aviator-style metal frame glasses and a gray Times digital watch.
He was wearing a black Ben Davis half-zip shirt, a brown zippered vest, a camouflage half-zipper jacket, black pants, white socks and gray athletic shoes, Focha said.
A black bicycle with multi-colored speckling on the frame and a towable child carrier on the back was found near the deceased man.
The man was carrying a red 7-inch Polaroid tablet, a Cobra camera in a case, four micro SD cards, three memory cards and a micro solar panel.
He also kept a journal with entries about math, physics and science, Focha said.
Notes found on other pieces of scrap paper indicated he frequented libraries. Coroner’s officials said they couldn’t identify the man through fingerprints.
Anyone who recognizes the man in the sketch is asked to call the coroner’s office at (707) 565-5070.
