In the summer of 1988 I hiked the John Muir Trail, which travels 221 miles from Yosemite Valley to the summit of Mount Whitney. I took photographs along the trail and over the next year and a half did a suite of 17 etchings of this Sierra Nevada backpack.

Corn Lilies grow by creeks and in swampy areas in these mountains. These plants are by Deer Creek, about 6 miles south of Reds Meadow.
