About this landmark

Plaque text:

At this point in August 1849, a group of Odd Fellows nearing their goal, the California gold mines, paused in their struggle up these granite walls, to paint on this and adjacent boulders, their names and the three links of the Great Order, they so dearly loved.
Pioneers of California, pioneers of the brotherhood of man, we salute you.
