This book is really three books in one. It is a guidebook for a walking/cycling route across California that follows John Muir's footsteps from San Francisco to Yosemite via the Pacheco Pass. It is an adventure book, telling the story of Peter and Donna Thomas' 2006 ramble across California to discover that route. And finally it is a history book, presenting in its entirety and for the first time, the complete story of John Muir's first trip to Yosemite. That trip was taken in 1868, the year before Muir's "First Summer in the Sierra," and it has never been published before, existing in obscurity, in Muir's various writings, until it was reconstructed by Peter and Donna in preparation for their walk to Yosemite in his footsteps.

DESCRIPTION - A Guide for hiking from San Francisco to Yosemite. With an account of the original 1868 trip by John Muir. This fascinating book really includes three books in this single volume. It's a guidebook for a walking/cycling route across California that follows John Muir's footsteps from San Francisco to Yosemite via the Pacheco Pass. It's an adventure book that tells the story of Peter and Donna Thomas' 2006 ramble across California to discover that route. And finally it is a history book, presenting in its entirety and for the first time, the complete story of John Muir's first trip to Yosemite. Muir took that trip in 1868, the year before Muir's First Summer in the Sierra, and it has never been published before, existing in obscurity in Muir's various writings, until it was reconstructed by Peter and Donna in preparation for their walk to Yosemite in his footsteps. The Thomases' Muir Ramble Route covers 305 miles divided into seven sections. Each section contains both directions for through hiking and a recommended trip that can be completed over a long weekend. The Thomas' offer several options for various sections: day hiking, backpacking, mountain biking, even canoeing. They suggest lodging options where available, and camping options wherever they are available along the route. They discuss advantages of walking versus cycling, how to plan vehicle shuttles, public transportation where available, and clothes and equipment suggestions, maps too. The Thomases have crafted a thoughtful and thought-provoking book that provides abundant information for the task at hand. inventory #46537. Bestandsnummer des Verkäufers z46537
