Brick Fireplace
Original to site
John Muir had this fireplace built after the original fell during the 1906 earthquake.
"I've built a big fireplace, almost suitable for mountaineers, into which I roll a jolly pair of logs two feet in diameter ... making fires that flame and roar and radiate sunny heat like those we built on the frosty coyote meadows..."
