After that rebuff, nothing would ever be enough for him; for the rest of his life, no mat- ter how many accolades were showered upon him, he con- stantly complained of being un- appreciated. Steel did get the job of super- intendent at Crater Lake some years later, after more or less forcing Arendt out of the job, but was only able to hang onto it for a few years. After that, he was made commissioner of the park – essentially, he was “kicked upstairs,” promoted to a presti- gious but powerless position to get him out of the way.
