Hmmm!?!
If Wayne can recall the location and number of at least 1 other marker, we could probably confirm or dubunk my theory...

: I've wondered as well. My theory is
: that they represent the summits of
: the 9 peaks challenge. Perhaps
: charlton is the 6th peak in some
: version of the 9 peaks challenge?
: I've not done the challenge, and
: don't know where the common route to
: the top of charlton is but i believe
: you could get to it by going
: straight up from this marker.

: Yes! I've been meaning to ask about
: those markers. I have seen at least
: 3 of them. Who knows about them?
: Anybody? Thanks for the great

: That marker, it's between San
: Gorgonio
: and Dollar Lake Saddle, right? On
: the flanks of the Charltons?
:
: I've always assumed it's some kind
: of mile marker, but I don't really
: know. It is about 6 miles from the
: old Falls Creek trailhead to that
: point if it's where I think it is.

: BTW, the flume you saw near Poopout
: Hill was built by Captain Jenks to
: fill a lake that he built by damming
: a creek at a critical juncture. Or
: at least that's what the panels at
: the lake say.
:
: There's more details about he flume
: in Robinson's San Gorgonio, A
: Wilderness Preserved , but I didn't
: have it handy when I wrote the
: caption. Maybe I'll look it up
: tonight.
:
: And do you have any idea what this
: is?
