Follow his steps as he first arrives in 1877, then returns to cultivate friendships with Charles Lummis, Theodore P. Lukens and A.C. Vroman. We find him exploring Southland mountains and deserts, stirring up support for wilderness and the national parks. Experience some of Pasadena's proudest moments; the visits of Andrew Carnegie and Theodore Roosevelt in 1910 and 1011. Then, trace the last active days to Muir's death in Los Angeles in 1914. A story to be heard; a life to be shared.
Made in USA.
