GUIDEBOOK INSTRUCTIONS The four 2023 Rendezvous Guidebooks were intentionally designed to be used on a local basis in future times by JSS members, students, researchers, and others with an interest in local history and historical locations. These two pages illustrate how the Guidebooks were used during the Rendezvous at the first stop: the Crescent Beach Overlook viewing the modern location and landscape of Smith's June 14, 1828 campsite near the mouth of Cushing Creek. Facing Page: (upper left) This is the cover of Guidebook #1, featuring a reproduction of Paul Calle's 1987 painting, "In the Land of Giants." Note that it is likely Smith and others viewed the redwoods, but it is unlikely they brought the pack teams or horses into them because of surface obstructions and lack of browse. (upper right) A GIS map created by Vyla Grindberg, based on research by Joe Molter and Bob Zybach showing Cushing Creek campsite in relation to Smith's travel route. (lower left) Table of Contents index showing 1828 dates of named and mapped campsites and page in Guidebook in which Smith's and Roger's transcribed journal entries for that day can be found. (lower right) Cushing Creek campsite transcribed journal entries.
