Set against the backdrop of the San Lorenzo River's headwaters, the narrative explores the untouched wilderness near San Jose and Santa Cruz during the Mission period. The region, initially protected by its rugged terrain and wildlife, faced exploitation in the 1880s following the discovery of its rich resources. The story highlights the foresight of a few individuals who recognized the dangers of rampant logging, leading to the establishment of California's first state park at Big Basin, preserving the landscape for future generations.
