In 1903 President Theodore Roosevelt accompanied Muir on a visit to Yosemite.
Much of the credit can be given to John Muir. He was the one who persuaded President Roosevelt to designate the land as a national park after camping out with him around Glacier Point.
The president admired John's love for nature.
John Muir had taken Teddy Roosevelt out on an overnight excursion to Yosemite's Glacier Point. President Roosevelt was so impressed by the trip that Muir was able to convince him to make the land a national park.

Teddy Roosevelt committed to environmental advocacy as a direct result of efforts by John Muir, one of the founders of the Sierra Club. He persuaded Roosevelt to come camping with him for a few days in Yosemite to gain appreciation for the cause. The trip had a positive effect and the president established the Muir Woods National Monument.
John Muir was a kind and loving man who cared for the wilderness. He was a man who was on the back of a California coin. He wrote about his feelings about nature and even problems. He had problems that people were cutting down trees because he knew that the trees were important to forests and animals even people. Muir wrote letters to our president Theodore Roosevelt. The president admired Muir's love of nature. Then they both went out on a 3 day camping trip and talked about conservation. President Roosevelt set aside 148 million acres of land. Muir died on December 24,1914 and was born on April 21,1838. He made us understand the importance of protecting our world and our resources then and now and for the future.
