Wow, what a great story.
I would have liked to have seen the remains of those Indian camps on Santa Rosa Island.
I never ate an abalone, but I remember seeing them for sale from time to time in markets in the Santa Barbara area.
I remember being impressed by the size of the shells with the mother-of-pearl like interiors. Many of them were the size of bicycle helmets!

Also the fishing was fantastic. Our job was albacore, but we caught lots of fish for dinner at Santa Rosa.
