John Muir lived in the Yosemite Valley from 1868 to 1873. The attention he won for Yosemite ensured its place as a National Park. Muir wrote, "Nowhere will you see the majestic operations of nature more clearly revealed beside the frailest, most gentle and peaceful things." The Yosemite calendar shares the spirit of awe Muir felt so clearly almost 150 years ago.
