See Cali49’s page where E! writes a substantial piece about John Samuelson’s epigrammatic rocks. LINK
Here is another fine site hosting some old-time Samuelson’s rocks photos and cabin as it appeared in the late-1920s—sadly, no image of Samuelson himself is provided. LINK
Hikers who visit Samuelson’s Rocks may want to detour a few hundred yards south (left) and see some old ruins and the remnants of a “Tin Lizzy” automobile on the edge of Quail Springs Wash before swinging north towards the low rocky hill on which John Samuelson etched his thoughts.

I hope you enjoyed your 3D Excursion through Samuelson’s Rocks. Little could he have imagined when he was alive that he’d be famous one day!
Note: if you are wondering about the yellow spot on some of the pictures, it is a 1915 double eagle.
