A little history of how this Peace Pole got planted in, what appears to be, the middle of nowhere:
"Planting the "Peace Pole"
On August 17, 1997, a group of chiropractors who have participated in a program for personal development ("The Masters") has planted a six foot high "peace pole" at Tenaya Lodge in the Yosemite valley in California. The private ceremony was attended by 70 DCs, their spouses, and chiropractic assistants.
The pole the DCs planted is one of 720 recently donated to the United States by the Japanese Peace Pole Project. There are more than 5,000 of these hand-crafted peace poles already in the U.S., each carrying the message: "May Peace Prevail on Earth." Participants placed their own notes for peace and health around the world inside the pole before it was set into the ground. "
