Tribute Essay in High Country News

This week I have an essay in High Country News titled "The Sign Maker" honoring Phil Garfoot, who died almost exactly a year ago. I was lucky enough to have a couple of fine Barnhart photos of Phil's signs accommany the essay, but I thought it'd be fun to include several more. Unfortunately the snow still hangs in the high country so these shots don't include many fine trail junction signs, but they give a sense of how ubiquitous and fitting they are here in Stehekin.
