Letter from [John Muir] to [Victor H. Henderson], 1903 Apr 3.

Abstract

Martinez Apr 3, 1903Dear Sir:I prefer No. 5 of the Yosemite trip itineraries. I would suggest a slight change in it for May 17th going up the trail only as far as the foot of the Upper Yosemite Fall, a thousand feet above the Valley floor, instead of to the head of it.

Too much will be crowded into the four days anyhow. Rapid restless motion will make03208 Mr Victor HendersonBerkeley Cal.everybody tired; men & horses scenery & wheels will be whirling & dancing like bowl[illegible]ers in pot-holes, & the impressions made by the grand landscapes are sure to be hazy however profound.
