“The power of imagination makes us infinite.” – John Muir
This week’s Muir Monday photo comes from a hiking friend, Robert Randall. Bob and I hiked Mt. Baldy together a few years ago, and more recently, Echo Mountain.
Bob captured this fantastic shot of the Milky Way looking southward over Middle Chain Lake in Yosemite National Park. He writes:
Six of us backpacked into Chain Lakes, located in the southernmost part of Yosemite. There are three lakes linked together by streams and ponds. It’s a beautiful, serene place and the fishing is good. We packed in on Friday and out on Monday.”

A Note about Muir Monday
I started sharing the wisdom of John Muir on back in June, posting new quotes on Instagram and Facebook with a photo I’ve taken that supports the message. Muir had a way with words, and the Muir Monday meme has proven popular. Beginning today, I’m trying out a new approach, sharing these inspirational words here on SoCal Hiker. Each Monday you’ll find a new quote to inspire you. Please spread the word, and share with your friends on Pinterest, Instagram, Facebook, Google+ or whatever networks you prefer.
