Chef Tie Sing and the Founding of the National Parks Service
Did you know that good camping food might be one of the main reasons why the US has a National Parks system? Steven Mather usually gets most of the credit for founding the National Parks Service, but the American landscape and Tie Sing’s cooking made a very memorable impression on the group. Tie Sing was a Chinese-American cook that used creativity to overcome adversity on the famous Mather Mountain Party adventure in the Sierra Nevada mountains. Eighteen influential businessmen, politicians, and writers embarked on a hiking and horseback riding trip from Sequoia Park to Yosemite, and they came out of the wilderness inspired and full of amazing food.
