Quote:
“The city of San Francisco, California, was looking for a cheaper source of water. City leaders wanted to dam the Hetch Hetchy Valley to make a reservoir, and pipe water into the city. Supporters of this project argued that the valley would not be missed. Muir disagreed. He wrote that the ‘Hetch Hetchy Valley, far from being a plain, common rock-bound meadow…[was] a grand landscaped garden, one of Nature’s rarest and most precious mountain temples’” (Warrick 97).
