2- Yosemite in the Words of Many

This episode centers around Yosemite National Park and the Yosemite Valley within it. It features descriptions of Yosemite from the very first European tourists in 1855, John Muir, modern travel bloggers, UNESCO, and two Ahwahneechee origin stories for structures within the park. We will look at how different people have presented these incredible rock structures and unique lifeforms that inhabit them to the world and in some cases, consider the effects that has had on the park.  This week on Instagram, I will be sharing early artists who captured Yosemite in all its glory.
