Narrative:
Was given permission to taxi to runway 36. Followed runway sign to runway 31/36. In order to get to runway 36, I noticed I had to enter runway 5 and then runway 36. Runway 36 is displaced from runway 5. I stopped short of runway 5 trying to see where the hold short line was. You couldn't tell runway 5 hold short from hold short of runway 36. Very, very confusing. Controller was doing clearance, ground and tower. He couldn't see where I was stopping. You need some above ground signs to clarify runway 5 and runway 36 instructions.
