Actually may not have been called Cumberland Forge may be just Wesley Budd’s Forge but aprox 1 mile up stream from Budd’s Cumberland Furnace
Where is this?

The first one I ever saw like this. It's been there a long time.
There are quite a few out there or I should say there were.
In any event, I am not going to give cords to the ones I know about but I will guess on yours by asking a question. Is it near a major highway? Edit: Looking at my photo it may be the wrong one I am thinking of.
BTW, Jess and I were looking for one we saw years ago a few weeks ago and could not find it. I will have to go back soon and look again.
Next Question. Is it really close to a major highway?
In my photo from 8/6/2005 there is what appears to be a rust spot to the right of the letter E in PHONE. I don't see that on yours making me have doubts. But if you say it is really close to a highway then I have to say it is the same sign.

I also have the photo of the sign in Guy's post; with the same rust spot. My photo was taken in September 2017. And I'm sure that is on a main highway that passes through the Pines. I know of one other sign, but I don't have a photo. That one is on a main 'piney' road. It may be the one on the left in Ed's post.

I think the two photos in Ed's post is the same sign with photos of it taken from both sides.
Yes, I went back there recently and saw that too. The same morning I met Fred Miller. It's sad. I think it was only a matter of time, though. The tree looked half dead last year. At least I got some nice shots while it was still standing.
That appears to be the one at Dutchtown that is in my photo. I see what looks like rust by the E.
Back then, you'd have to drive home, grab the handset off the wall, and dial information and ask for the Forest Fire Warden.
I forget what we had to do to get information. Ask the operator?

Here's one that is really buried
1. Where is it?
2. What did it say? The "R" might be a clue. I don't know what it said but there are 10,000 points to the person with the answer. The other side was no help.
