Pics of the signpost forest?

Here is a photo from about 2004 of the signs. They only have so much space and poles to use for hanging signs. So I was told at the center there, that every so often they go through and remove many of the older signs, the dilapidated ones, unreadable ones, etc to make room for people to hang new ones. How long your sign will last before removal, is anyone's guess. I hung my first sign there in 1962 and was never able to re-find it again, even though I made the round trips again in 1964, 1965, 1969 abd 1974 plus many more round trips later on. Over the years I probably hung signs a half dozen times, but never found them later, that I can remember.

Still it is a fun thing to do, great to stand in front of your sign and get your photo taken by someone. Better than leaning on your car fender, blocking most of the view in front of the camera, to prove you had been somewhere. LOL



The photo of the signs taken by Sue's dad, Jack, was how I remember it looking in the early days. This was about 5 years before Sue was born. The building in the back right is the old Watson Lake Hotel and Lounge before they added the motel onto the hotel building. The entire complex burned a few years back but had been closed to operations for a number of years. Had some real good times in that old building, on the first four trips I made before getting married in Anchorage in 1973. On a Friday or Saturday night it was the place to be.
