E Clampus Vitus Adopt-A-Highway

Lassen Volcanic National Park is in the northern areas of the Mother Lode, where California's Gold Rush took place.

While on the way to the park, just before reaching the town of Shingletown from the west, I spotted some signs for the "Adopt-A-Highway" program. These posted that the Lassen Loomis Chapter No. 1914 of the Ancient and Honorable Order of E Clampus Vitus was the sponsor for road clean-ups along this stretch of highway (U.S. Highway 44). This is definitely "Clamper Country"!

The Clampers began during the Gold Rush and still flourish today. I joined in 1984.

Here's one of the signs:
