That human history is woven into the land, both tangibly, in ancient artifacts, pioneer-era cabins and vintage photos, and intangibly, in stories passed down through generations or still waiting to be told. Your support can fund efforts to preserve, share, honor and learn from Yosemite’s cultural and historic legacies.
