Other times US Forest Service came up
Sounds like it was one person the entire time. No, mostly there'll seem to be one person. Jack Kerouac was one of these guys, wasn't he? Was he? He was. He spent 63 days as a US Forest Service fire lookout on a place called Desolation Peak. Wow. Sounds fun. And he went there thinking that he'll be on his own. He only has to look out for fires for a while, so it'll be fine.
