Final Post

When I came to Yosemite, the plan was to teach for Yosemite Institute for two years and return to Utah/Colorado where I'd been starting my career. Most of four decades later, I'm moving back to Colorado. There are no words for how fortunate I've been to be able to live in and work for Yosemite. Marvelous landscape, terrific people, on and on. Though I've lived here most of my life, I'm really just passing through. The Sierra is too big and too deep for any one human life. It's been a privilege to study its history and to imagine its future, which will go on regardless of what any of us thinks, feels or does.

I look forward to return visits to Yosemite, and to the good things I think people will do to protect this park, this planet. Thanks for reading! -Pete
