I have long thought of the dam as a headstone that should read,"Here lies Hetch-Hetchy.Born Day 5,Died 1923.Never has so much been sacrificed by so many for so few." I'm a registered Democrat,so I don't do this often,but I'd like to quasi-quote Ronald Reagan and say,"Senators Boxer and Feinstein,TEAR DOWN THAT DAM!" Hetch-Hetchy's headstone is NOT permanent.Like some guy named Jesus,Hetch-Hetchy WILL rise again!!!
Beautiful shots and video. We Paiutes had stories about Muir. I heard through some tales that he was a very eccentric person, but they saw him many times by himself enjoying the nature that is both Yosemite and Hetch Hetchy. John Muir truely loved both areas.
Ive been there before it was a life changing day.
