available near Silverwood Lake/Cleghorn Picnic Area? Incidentally, what's a  cleghorn 
anyhow? A hiker musical instrument perhaps?!   Switchback,  you seem like a 
guy who ought to know...   And how about the closed  store (Summit Valley 
Store) a few miles prior (Mile 320-ish); is there a phone  outside?

Actually, I do not know, but someone on this list probably does.  I  always 
thought Cleghorn was some early pioneer in the area.  That is why  there are so 
many place names in the area for Cleghorn.  That is a common  practice in 
most areas.  Early farmers and pioneers get their names on  things.  Just like 
the name of mountains and other outdoor features in the  backcounty for 
explorers and trailblazers.  Cheers,  Switchback
