This Vintage Bronco Brand Orange Fruit Crate Label features a full dressed Western Cowboy galloping between sagebrush plants and looking to lasso a steer; who has so far eluded him. Rocky Buttes can be seen in the distance. This Cowpoke is not dressed for the Big City; from his boots to his hat he's clad in leather chaps, six-gun, Western shirt and vest; a True Wild West Buckaroo. His pony looks like it knows its way around a beef.

A note on the San Gorgonio Wilderness: On and around Southern California's Highest Peak; Excerpted fromCalifornia's Wilderness Areas: The Deserts by George Wuerthner The San Bernardino Mountains aren't your typical desert range. For one, they are well watered and forested. They are also extremely high, rising like a fortress and walling in the eastern edge of the Los Angeles Basin. This is the rooftop of southern California, with a number of ridges and peaks that rise above treeline including 10,806-foot Charlton Peak, 11,205-foot Jepson Peak, 10,624-foot San Bernardino Peak, 10,630-foot East San Bernardino Peak, and 11,502-foot Mount San Gorgonio—the highest peak in southern California. On a clear day from the broad summit plateau of Mount San Gorgonio, exquisite views are possible, with the Sierra Nevada and much of the Mojave Desert visible. The peak is also the southernmost glaciated landscape in California and includes the glacial landforms of Dollar Lake, Dry Lake, and Poopout Hill. Year ‘Round Citrus Fruits.......... Many agricultural areas in Southern California have more than one growing season per year. In our yard in San Clemente, within view of the Pacific Ocean, stands a 20 year old lemon tree that provides Sweet Lemons all year around. The Mediterranean climate allows for this thriving production, which is helpful in the Gin and Tonic manufacturing industry here locally.
