Big Basin in Exhibit
Details of the exhibit include the beginnings of a conservation movement at the end of the 1800s, the inspiration for a new park for Andrew Hill after being denied his request to photograph the redwoods at the Welsh grove, and the formation of a group of men and the Sempervirens Club to push Congress for a designated park.
