The travelers came to Raymond riding trains and stagecoaches.&nbsp; From Raymond the tours took stages, not stagecoaches, because the stagecoaches held the dust inside. The stages were wagons with benches and a top. The sides dropped down to protect passengers if the weather turned bad. (One may be seen at the Wawona Pioneer Village.)<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>In 1903, Teddy Roosevelt visited Raymond on his way to Yosemite.&nbsp; He can be seen at the old Raymond Bowen Hotel giving a speech on a picture on the Wall.&nbsp; They took (now) Road 600 to Ahwahnee, where they had lunch and then old roads that came out at Fish Camp and went on to Wawona. This was a 12- hour trip.&nbsp; This was the famous trip with John Muir that ended with the expansion of Yosemite becoming a national Park.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image is-resized\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/coarsegoldmuseum.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/01\/IMG_7791-225x300.jpeg\" alt=\"\" class=\"wp-image-398\" width=\"303\" height=\"404\" srcset=\"https:\/\/coarsegoldmuseum.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/01\/IMG_7791-225x300.jpeg 225w, https:\/\/coarsegoldmuseum.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/01\/IMG_7791.jpeg 600w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 303px) 100vw, 303px\" \/><figcaption class=\"wp-element-caption\"><strong>View of center of third room, Wall with historic Raymond and Knowles Photos<\/strong><\/figcaption><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image is-resized\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/coarsegoldmuseum.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/01\/IMG_7794-225x300.jpeg\" alt=\"\" class=\"wp-image-399\" width=\"300\" height=\"400\" srcset=\"https:\/\/coarsegoldmuseum.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/01\/IMG_7794-225x300.jpeg 225w, https:\/\/coarsegoldmuseum.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/01\/IMG_7794.jpeg 600w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 300px) 100vw, 300px\" \/><figcaption class=\"wp-element-caption\"><strong>Picture of Teddy Rosevelt&#8217;s speech in Raymond<\/strong><\/figcaption><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<p>Eventually, in 1907 a railroad was built to take passengers from Merced to El Portal, just outside the west gate to the park &#8211; much easier than Raymond and much less hassle!<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\" id=\"Knowes\">Knowles<\/h3>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-audio\"><audio controls src=\"https:\/\/coarsegoldmuseum.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/01\/Knowles.mp3\"><\/audio><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<p id=\"Knowles\"><strong>Knowles<\/strong> is the location of one of the many granite quarries that were in this area.
