Sponsored by the Sierra Club: Muir Ramble Route: Walking in the Footsteps of John Muir.
In April 1868, only days after arriving in San Francisco by steamship, John Muir set out on a six-week-long walk across California to Yosemite. Inspired by Muir’'s 300-mile journey, award-winning book artists Peter and Donna Thomas walked his route as closely as possible - 138 years later. Join Peter and Donna for a digital presentation of their 2006 ramble across California, which led to their creation of the Muir Ramble Route (MRR) from San Francisco to Yosemite over Pacheco Pass. Peter and Donna will show you some of the unique landmarks of this cross-California route, designed for urban backpackers and cyclists to discover still-wild places in the greater Bay Area and beyond. As they share highlights from their book, “Muir Ramble Route: Walking from San Francisco to Yosemite in the Footsteps of John Muir”, they will also tell us the story of their reconstruction of Muir’s first trip to Yosemite, drawn from his various writings, and give us new insight into the inspiration behind the preservation of wilderness areas and the creation of our treasured national parks. Send a check for $16.50 make out to "Sierra Club, S.F.Bay Chapter" to Gerry Souzis, 1801 California St., #405, San Francisco, CA 94109. Please indicate number of guests and your phone number. Checks must be received by Friday, Sept. 13. Non-members are welcome. Bring your own wine or soft drinks. Glasses and ice are available. Let us know if you are a vegetarian.
