Read “A fresh heir in Muir country” in today’s Los Angeles Times—the article features Robert Hanna. Robert wears many hats, including that of California state park advocate, board member of the John Muir Association, and oh yes … he’s John Muir’s great-great-grandson.

Robert’s enthusiasm and help was instrumental in getting the Mono Lake Tufa State Natural Reserve removed from the park closure list in December. He’s now working with other state parks around California that remain on the list; he says “66 state parks still need all the help they can get.”

Take a look at the article’s accompanying video, which features footage of Mono Lake on a typical windy fall day.

Keep an eye on the Mon0-logue for news about the new John Muir quote T-shirt we’re working on with Robert’s company, Range of Light!
