The author of ''A mountaing calling'' suggests that John Muir valued nature. This statement can be supported because in paragraph 1 it says how John Muir never liked the word ''hike''. The author adds how in the 19th century the American society's connection to nature had grown increasingly shallow and rigid and hasty. John Muir on the other hand preferred to saunter. Sauntering meant to value what you see, and this is what John Muir spent is whole life doing: valuing and enjoying nature, instead of rushing to be the first. Another evidence that supports that John Muir valued nature when Muir was in his 30's he had stumbled upon the great California's Sierra Nevada mountains. He would scramble down steep cliff faces to get a closer look at the waterfalls and would jump and howl to show how much he loved nature (paragraph 4). Muir would also do some soulful writing about the places he visited (paragraph 5).
