"All forest places are places of rest, and meadows and valleys are even more so in their nature. Wawona combines them all, and indeed I do not know a more idyllic spot. Seclusion is in the very air, and its beauty is of that gentle and perfect quality that does not so much command one’s admiration as it quietly captivates one’s heart...and I for one always feel that if Yosemite (Valley) has the greater glory, Wawona has the deeper charm."
