About us
The vision of Restore Hetch Hetchy is to return to the people Yosemite Valley’s lost twin, Hetch Hetchy – a majestic glacier-carved valley with towering cliffs and waterfalls, an untamed place where river and wildlife run free, a new kind of national park.
The mission of Restore Hetch Hetchy is to return the Hetch Hetchy Valley in Yosemite National Park to its natural splendor ─ while continuing to meet the water and power needs of all communities that depend on the Tuolumne River.
Our mission and vision.
Hetch Hetchy was once a majestic glacier-carved valley and home of Indigenous peoples; its beauty famously compared to Yosemite Valley.
Our commitment to creating a park for everybody.
Principles which govern our operations.
