November 10, 1935: "On June 3rd Angelo Derito and a small crew of men commenced the erection of a telephone line to the Mount Maude lookout tower, 14 miles away from camp. A crew of six men dug the holes and sat the poles, completing the job the 30th of September. 3 1/2 miles of line had to be changed to the opposite side of the road since the Bell Telephone Company claimed interference with their lines. In all over 17 miles of wire was strung. It was a big job and it required a crack crew to complete it as they did." (Camp Chips - CCC newsletter)
