Photograph of a sign for Knights Camp at Big Bear Lake sitting along the roadside. A dirt road passes across the foreground. Tall grasses sit on the far side of the road in front of white picket fence that stretches from right to left. A sign on the fence reads, "STANDARD FLAMO GAS-EQUIPED COTTAGES." Immediately behind the fence, a billboard-sized sign stands at center. It reads, "KNIGHTS CAMP." Two lamps hang over it from the top edge. A right-pointing arrow sits atop the large sign. To the left, a road, stretches into the distance. A building stands down the road along the left edge. Pines stand in the far distance.
