Who were the early explorers in California?

Many people explored CA. Some of the first were the Spanish and they began the mission system and founded cities in CA. Sir Francis Drake found San Francisco Bay while he was exploring the coastline of CA. Many trappers came into CA as well. One famous one was Jedediah Smith. He was one of the first white men to see Yosemite Valley and lived for a long time with the Native Americans in the central San Joaquin valley. John C.
