Yes, exactly. Muir took Roosevelt up to Glacier Point by horseback to show him Yosemite. They camped and came down the next day. To paraphrase, Roosevelt called it one of the most beautiful places he'd ever seen.

The encounter is outlined in DAM!, a great book about Hetch Hetchy's history, which details the Muir and Roosevelt's relationship.
