Muir Grove
Muir Grove is a giant sequoia grove in Sequoia National Park of the Tulare County, which covers about . The grove, located in the northwest corner of the park, is accessed by the Muir Grove Trail which begins from the Dorst Creek Campground. Because of its relatively remote location in the park, it is significantly less visited than the more popular groves of large sequoia trees in the park. The isolated atmosphere helps keep Muir Grove untouched and preserved. ==History and Origin== Muir Grove was named after the Scottish-American naturalist and author John Muir. His advocacy for the preservation of wilderness in the United States made him well known among environmentalists and politicians. His writing about nature and conservation efforts helped sway many public and political opinions. His attempts lead to the creation of Sequoia and General Grant National Parks.〔(【引用サイトリンク】url=http://www.trails.com/tcatalog_trail.aspx?trailid=HGS510-100 )〕
