Restore Hetch Hetchy

The Issue

"Hetch-Hetchy is the most wonderful and most important feature of the great park, that damming it would destroy it, render it inaccessible, and block the way through the wonderful Tuolumne Cañon to the grand central campground in the upper Tuolumne Valley." - John Muir

John Muir helped found Yosemite National Park and several others in the U.S., but his biggest disappointment was when San Francisco dammed the Hetch Hetchy Valley for drinking water. Hetch Hetchy is a Yosemite look alike with spectacular waterfalls, and glacial carved granite monoliths. If the voters of San Francisco approve the measure on the November ballot the inital steps will be taken to look for alternative avenues to find a sustainable water supply to the city.

I need your help with a petition to restore one of the natural wonders of our world. Hetch Hetchy, is a glacial valley that is presently filled with water but was once the sister valley to Yosemite. Wilderness after all, is where we free our mindS. And we need to preserve these natural places for future generations.

Share your support for finding alternative avenues of sustainable water and help restore the Hetch Hetchy Valley by signing this petition. 

If you live in San Francisco, you can help by voting YES on Proposition F in November.
