Various Sierra stuff





Here's John Muir possibly savoring Eaton Canyon in 1878. The next one is with Teddy Roosevelt in Yosemite. I believe Muir was trying to protect the Hetch Hetchy reservoir area from capitalization. Here's a very beautiful well done photo of probably the eastern Sierra after a severe winter storm. Awesome! And here's a place to stand in faith. Quite a drop below maybe a good 3000 feet to the Yosemite valley below. Many people have not made it up half dome, slipped to their death far below. Muir actually did it before they put in the railing ropes.
