Boy Scout Sign

I'm wondering if anyone else has seen this homemade sign near a small lake on the northwest side of Mt. Adams, Washington around the 7000 ft level.

 

The sign says "Seattle 65 BSA Summit Aug-8-1934."

 

I'm assuming the BSA stands for Boy Scouts of America. In 1934 this sign must have had a better view of the mountain. The tree it's on has died and will probably be down in a couple of years, disappearing into the wilderness area. Maybe there's a former Boy Scout out there somewhere that remembers climbing Mt. Adams in 1934.
