“I
simply stuffed some bread and tea into an old sack,
jumped over the back fence…and got as near to
the heart of this world as I could” —JOHN
MUIR
And
so began the legendary adventures of the 19th-century
poet, writer, naturalist, and founder of the Sierra
Club: John Muir.

Park captured in today’s highest quality digital
