Prune picker

Prune picker is a Depression Era term for a native Californian. It was not a complement.

A summer at Arcadia National Park.

It was a summer Jackie and I treasured. We parked our fifth wheel trailer at the park headquarters. We worked as volunteers for the park for 3 1/2 months. Jackie worked in the reception center and I worked in the sign shop.


The park hak has many miles of trails. There were several hundred trail heads and intersections. I made the signs shown in the picture. Day after day.


This is Jackie standing by a sign post. Notice that the post is held up with rocks. The terrain at this point was all rock. Acres of rock like on the top of Cadillac Mountain. To mark a trail the park placed rock cairns at intervals. Sometimes arrows were painted on the rock.
