It says "no trespassing violators will be prosecuted" so I'm taking that to mean I can trespass with impunity 🙂

That would be fine except for the exclamation point obviously ending the first sentence and beginning a new thought and sentence.

Slow down Dave.

The only place where I can picture tresses being passed is in a hair salon where the person in the chair is donating 10", or longer, locks of hair to the Locks of Love Foundation.

I always thought "Tresspassers will be violated" with a picture of the Gimp from Pulp Fiction might be discouraging.

Warning!

Trespassers will be violated.

Survivors will be prosecuted.

Is there any chance that said "Danager" at one time?

Looks like a tower site so it likely has some high voltage gear inside the fence.

The sign should read Trespassers will be Electrocuted.

I was guessing fire tower.

Yes it's a lookout tower built in the 1930s. It's not being used. It has some loose guy wires so it doesn't look very stable.

We have historic pictures of it in the 1930s. The lookout's family lived there in a tiny house on $200/month (that's in the file too). From the photo it looks like he had a wife and two daughters.

In the 1930's at $200/mo you probably could have had a thousand applicants for a job opening.

>"Federal minimum wage standards were first set in 1938 at $0.25/hour"
