San Francisco has plans to build a dam on the Tuolumne River to store water as a reservoir, and public opinion has begun to put pressure on it. The Hirsch Valley will be blocked, and this plan was strongly opposed by Muir. He highly praised Hirsch, even surpassing Yosemite Valley. Moore of Sierra Club joined Robert Underwood Johnson in opposing the flooding in the valley. Moore even wrote to President Roosevelt asking him to stop the project. After years of debate, the public's views on the project were polarized, and President Woodrow Wilson, Roosevelt's successor, signed the dam construction bill on June 5438+091March+February 19. As a result of this argument, the valley was destroyed and Moore felt extremely lost.
John moore's legacy was inherited by his great-grandson, Mike Moore. He founded an organization called Access Adventure to help people with physical disabilities do outdoor activities in wheelchairs. Naming in memory of Muir:
