Wow I love how deeply you have dived into the awesomeness of John Muir! I fell in love with him in College writing a paper on him and was bothered that is couldn’t make the paper longer.
Here is my favorite quote of his:
"When we try to pick out anything by itself, we find it hitched to everything else in the Universe."
Same, Luke! I was obsessed with Muir in college after I discovered Edwin Way Teale’s “The Wilderness World of John Muir” sitting next to the book I was looking for on the library shelf. I picked it up and couldn’t put it down!

Love these kind of complications... the real stories behind the quotes are always more interesting and more useful.
Loved this, and the true quote. I can definitely relate to the calling.
Me too, Alex! ⛰️
I love this post, Kristen! I’ve long been a fan of John Muir, but this added something to my knowledge. Enjoy the Sierras!
