Sequoia & Kings Canyon National Park

BEAUTIFUL place. I absolutely LOVE nature. Highly recommend visiting. So much to see and do.

We only spent one day in Sequoia and made the mistake of that day being Memorial day. Luckily we got there early and we able to enjoy some of the park without the crowds. I got really frustrated with my fellow visitors towards the end of our visit, mainly because they were idiots. Ok, first of all don’t carve your name in any of the trees. No one care that «Jackie was here.» The trees were here before you were a thought and will be here when no one remembers you so knock it off. Second of all, who brings a radio on a hike? I’ll tell you who: annoying people. Some of us love nature and come here to get away from noise so listening to your music is ruining the moment. Lastly, don’t be rude to the park rangers. They’re people too. I love national parks and Sequoia is no exception I just think people sometimes need a refresher course in etiquette.

Deep Canyons, High Peaks and Giant trees!
This was our first time in this beautiful park located in the southern Sierra Nevada. Our National Park annual pass once again comes in handy as entrance fee to the park is $ 30 per car (but it is good for 7 days like all of our national park fees — great if you’re camping or hiking). It’s always helpful to start your adventure stopping by the Visitor Center to get ideas on great stopping points (if you’re only here for a day trip) or get campgrounds, hiking information if you plan to do any of these activities. For this visit we were here for only a day of sightseeing.
Highlights at Sequoia NP:
Tunnel Rock — you won’t miss this one. It’s located just inside the entrance to Sequoia NP. It’s a huge rock that sits on top of other rocks and visitors can walk beneath this ‘balanced rock’.
Moro Rock — located in the center of the park. It is between Giant Forest and Crescent Meadow. The Rock is made of granite dome rock formation… we stopped by the Amphitheater Point Overlook to take some photos. It is huge and majestic at 6,725-ft.
Giant Forest — named because of its giant Sequoia trees. Feeling tiny it was an amazing power of nature as we drove through the meadows and these giant trees. You will also find the Giant Forest Museum here. The Sentinel Sequoia Tree is just right outside the museum.
General Sherman Tree — I wrote a separate review on this. A 5 star review!
Highlights at Kings Canyon NP:
Junction View — stopped here to feast our eyes on excellent views of both the Middle Fork and the South Fork of Kings Canyon. It was cool to watch the rain falling on the canyons. Occasionally we would see a lightning bolt strike then followed by thunder. I was a bit scared to be out in the open.
Roaring River Falls — In awe! Located just off Generals Highway in the Cedar Grove Area… felt the power of this short but mighty waterfall, like an angry and violent waterfall, as it rushed through a narrow granite chute. The walk is only a short .3-​mile round trip on a paved trail. Definitely worth the stop.
Canyon View — picturesque views from the pullout! It rained here briefly so we were looking at a wet view of the glacial past. The views of the U-​shaped Kings Canyon vista certainly didn’t disappoint. Plenty of campsites and hiking trails in Canyon View Campgrounds.
Grizzly Falls — first time I’ve witnessed erosion in action as dirt mixed with the water making the waterfall brown in color. The walk to the falls is only half a mile. Please watch the short video i took of this waterfall.
Roads End — as we circled this area we saw amazing views of Muir Rock along with plenty of hiking trails and an impressive views of high granite walls.
This was a whole day affair of adventure for us and we still missed many spots… definitely have to come back again for a second round.

2 stars because the park is AMAZINGGG!!! But 0 stars for the rest of my family’s experience here.
We decided to come here after reading reviews of how its less crowded than Yosemite, blah blah blah. So my family decided to come here the day before Memorial Day. I guess we went on the wrong weekend because everything we thought was going to be right, ended up being WRONG.
We arrived 4 hours later from the Bay Area where entrance fee is $ 30, with a map provided. The map was not very descriptive at all. I guess being a millennial, I expect everything to have pictures lol. Anyway, the road to the big tree aka General Sherman was an extra hour of zig zags from the entrance. My senior-​aged mother & father was so car sick. Not recommended for older people at all.
The day we went happened to be sprinkling/​storming in some areas in the forest while it was still really hot & humid. Looking for parking was HORRIBLE!!! We end up having to park so far away & having to take 2 different shuttles at 2 diff stops just to get to that darn tree!!!
Everyone was irritated! The park was so unorganized. Seems like they weren’t prepared for the weather nor the crowds. Staff was RUDE!!! Especially a couple of the shuttle drivers! HELLO! YOU WORK HERE & YOU’RE SUPPOSED TO HELP US FIGURE OUT THIS WHOLE SHUTTLE THING!!!
We waited over an hour to get on a shuttle since they only fit a limited number of people. My whole family of 13 didn’t care & squeezed ourselves in the next available shuttle because they come around every 20 minutes. Ain’t nobody got time for that!!!
Even the tourists people there were rude! We were trying to figure out the line to get on the transfer shuttle, so I initiated this woman who I seen standing near the shuttle sign for quite some time to be the first person. Then this family who was no where near the shuttle sign decided that they were first. Uh, excuse me?! & where did you just suddenly come from?! They were talking smack about me in German & thankfully my sister took German in high school so she understood what they were saying. I was ready to brawl, but my bf held me back.
Anyhow, finally got on the shuttle to get to the big tree. Once we got to the tree, my senior-​aged father didnt realize there was a line to take pictures in front of the General Sherman tree. So this heavy set middle aged man yelled at my father saying, «hello?! There’s a line!!». DUDE, gtfo here with that rudeness to a senior citizen!!! I was so pissed & heated at everything & everyone here!!!
Basically our trip was ruined because we didn’t have enough time to explore the other places due to long lines waiting for the shuttle, the weather, the rude staff, the rude tourists, & how unorganized it was.
Do not come here with a big group & avoid holiday weekends at ALL COSTS!!! I plan to come here again with only my fiancé to hike the trails & Moro rock. I wished my experience with my family was better. But I think we were better off just going to Yosemite where it is closer, more readable signage, & more family friendly.

Going up Moro Rock is like a staircase to heaven. It’s a must see! It’s definitely a place where you experience emotional healing. Enjoy.

Bad park organization, ultra small parkings, and they charge $ 30 entrance fee. King’s Canyon is nice, but Sequoia NP is safe to skip… you most probably won’t have anywhere to park, unless you wanna go park 30 minutes away, and take three connecting shuttle rides just to see a bloody tree.

This is my first national park travel and t is really amazing.
Day 1, I drove to the road end of fwy 180 and hiked on bubba trail to mist fall. It is a 12miles hiking for round trip. The water fall is not pretty high while it is so wide. So gorgeous view and really a big mist which can get you all wet! Lucky for me wearing my 3in1 jacket.
Day 2 is a little bit frustrating and I intended to try some prestigious attractions like crystal cave, Sherman tree and Moro Rock. Just too many ppl and they require you to buy ticket in visitor center for crystal cave… … So you’d better scrutinize brochure very carefully … …
Anyway it is not bad and I will definitely go there again but do camping in the national park rather than in island lake Campground

Amazing. Especially worth going the extra drive to see the giant sequoia trees. We also stopped at the restaurant near the exhibit. It was ok. Food was more like camp cafeteria food

This is a BEAUTIFUL park! It’s $ 30 per car to enter. The views are gorgeous, pure natural beauty! The Giant Sequoia trees are so awesome! The park is clean and pretty safe, of course you have to use common sense and be with caution. As it is a National Park park with wild animals. The Moro Rock took my breath away literally ! haha… (not in shape) but we made it to the top and that view is definitely worth it at about 6,700 feet high in elevation really recommend it.
Although be ready for a drive on your way here. Its quite a curvy drive. In winter time (snow) be extra cautious. Takr snacks since there isn’t any food shops there specially if you have kids. Take snacks and water. Overall, all great place to enjoy nature as its best with the family!

Another AMAZING NP!
Sites to be seen here include Tunnel Rock, Moro Rock, General Sherman (largest tree in the WORLD by volume), Grant’s Grove, Tunnel Log, Crystal Cave, Auto Log and many more. These were the sites on the Sequoia side. I did not get to venture to Kings Canyon this visit. I had already driven 1000 miles in a few days and only 4 days for this excursion.
My favorite destination by far was the General Sherman Tree. Absolutely breathe taking. You feel so small compared to this massive tree that reached to the clouds and the base is 36 ft in diameter. It makes you appear like a tiny little mouse compared to a human. Set your camera on your cell to panoramic in order to capture the entire log in you photos.
Also a unique experience was the Crystal Cave. tickets are very limited to 50 people a tour and can fill up quickly. Crystal Cave is also only open about 4 – 5 months out of the year so plan your trip accordingly Tickets go on sale at 9 am and are available at Foothill or Lodgepole visitor centers. Overall time commitment can be about 3 hours when you include the hike down the ½ mile trail to the cave entrance. The 50 minute tour inside the cave and then the strenuous uphill climb. The rock formations inside have been preserved and untouched for nearly 100 years since the caves re-​discovery. At the bottom of the trail their is a great little multi level waterfall to add to the serenity of this magical place. The closing moments of the tour are the highlight, but I will not spoil the surprise. It left me saying WOW!
Tunnel Log is a fallen tree that you can drive your vehicle through. This path also leads you to Parker’s Grove which is has several Sequoia’s that you can handle. Meaning you can touch an get close to the trunk unlike Gen Sherman who is fenced in and off limits. Be careful on your hikes because poison oak is everywhere and you could easily ruin a vacation if you are not mindful of where you trek.
Auto Log was a fallen tree that you used to be able to drive your car on but the log was beginning to decay and became hazardous so the park service closed off this landmark over a decade ago.
Moro Rock is also in the same area of these landmarks but is not for the faint of heart. A little over a mile hike and 300 feet of elevation climb leaves perched on the top of a granite boulder that gives you breathtaking views of the eastern part of Sequoia. You get to look over the edge of what appears to be at least 2000 ft cliff. You feel as if your on top of the world.
Caution is recommended while driving on these roads. Many of the speed limits are 10 – 25 mph on these windy switchbacks. A few miles seems to take hours with all the twist and turns. Be patient and you will get to your destination eventually. My biggest anxiety was to the possible sighting of bears. We did not see any while on this excursion but that did not keep me from looking over my shoulder for every twig snap I heard.
Enjoy! A must see adventure.

Sequoia National Park — what utter beauty you possess.
Went here for two days and it was really nice to bask in Mother Nature and all its glory. The $ 30, 7-​day pass is money well spent. Here are some facts/​tips about all of the stops we made:
1) Moro Rock — Yes, this is a steep 400 step-​climb to the summit, but it is not hard despite what many others say. If you are out of shape, no problem, just take a few extra breaks along the way to enjoy the view. Seriously, there are so many beautiful vantage points with each twist and turn on the journey up, not just at the very top of the rock. Either way, you’ll make it to the top in no time — in distance, it’s only 0.3 miles from parking lot to peak. Once you reach the summit, the views are awe inspiring. You get a beautiful panoramic view of the park that stretches far beyond what you could imagine. Take your photos, then more importantly, take in the moment. Gaze out into the distance and take in one of the most incredible views you will ever see. In my opinion, this is the best place the park has to offer and is a can’t miss.
2) Crystal Caves — This is a great change of scenery if you’ve been out in the sun too much from hiking. The cave tour at Sequoia is well worth the $ 16 price of admission if you visit the park from May — November. We went in May so they were just starting the season and it was a fantastic experience. You will start by taking a 0.5 mile hike down a trail to the cave itself but the trail includes a stunning hidden gem of a waterfall that has a few layers to it. Once inside the cave, marvel at the stalactites that have formed from a mixture of minerals and water drippings over many years. You will feel the coldness from inside as you trek the formations which include subterranean streams and even marble. An awesome thing that our tour guide did during the tour was taking us into one of the rooms, turning it pitch black, and giving us a moment of silence. This gave us the most genuine feeling of what it was like for creatures (and early humans) that had to adapt their entire way of life around the caves.
3) General Sherman Tree — You will walk past many giants on your 0.4 mile trek from the parking lot before you reach the most gigantic of them all — General Sherman. The entire area that surrounds General Sherman tree is very beautiful and majestic. You will realize how small you are standing among the beastly behemoths that are the giant sequoias. General Sherman is the biggest tree in the world by VOLUME (not the tallest) so make sure you understand that going in. Take a picture with it, then look up and marvel at it for a very brief moment, because that’s all you have until someone pushes you out of the way to snap their photo with the famous tree ;) Seriously, there is always hoards of people by this tree but also take the time to walk around this place, there are so many different nuances around here that people miss because they are too busy trying to snap a photo with the biggest tree in the world.
4) Giant Forest Museum — This museum is FREE and nearby the giant Sequoias. Inside, you get to view unique facts about General Sherman and how its size compares to other trees, animals, and landmarks around the world. You also get to view very interesting facts about giant sequoias and sustainability issues that they face. This is a perfect place to buy souvenirs too as there is a gift shop inside. Make sure to come here before closing time at 4:30PM. An awesome bonus here is the great Sentinel tree is right outside the museum. This tree is just as amazing as General Sherman without the crowds so don’t pass on a photo op with it!
5) Tunnel Rock — This a giant boulder that is perfectly balanced on top of a few smaller boulders, creating a «tunnel» beneath it that people can go under. You can also climb up the dirt path besides it to get on top of the boulder which creates a cool photo op as well :) This rock is very close to the south entrance of the trail by Three Rivers.
6) Potwisha Campgrounds — this is a spacious campground near the Three Rivers entrance to the park. The cool thing about this trail is actually when you venture off away from it a little. About 0.25 miles from the campground, you will come up on a beautiful view of a river that flows down. You will also see an old suspension bridge where you can cross and stand over as the river flows beneath you. As you venture further towards Buckeye Flats, you will come across a few authentic, ancient Native American drawings on various trees. I would consider these hidden gems which not many people know of.
If you are teetering on whether to visit Sequoia National Park or not, hopefully this review makes the choice clearer. Seriously, GO! It’s freakin awesome.

Entrance to the park was free on Sunday (4-​24-​2016). However, we have an annual park pass.
It is possible to enjoy an easy hike in a forest without worrying about women’s pitstop.
We waited for the cleaning lady to finish cleaning the bathroom at the Moro Rock trail. I was the first to use a clean toilet. It didn’t smell. Toilet had no flushing.
In one day, we had enough time and energy to hike several trails to see the Moro Rock summit, see the giant sequoia trees named after generals, hug a few trees, visit a museum, eat lunch, and return home. Napping breaks included.
The hiking trails we went on were paved, which kept my shoes clean. So glad.
I was also glad that I wore a warm outdoor coat because it was very cold for me.

I’ve wanted to go to Sequoia for a long, long, time and finally was able to go last month. Snow was mostly gone, leaving the park beautifully green. If you get motion sickness, take medication, or wear those anti-​nausea bracelets, or the windy drive will ruin your morning. I didn’t realize how crazy that drive would be and forgot my bracelets on one of our trips up.
We went to General Sherman, Tunnel Log, Moro Rock, Hospital Rock, Tunnel Rock, camped at Buckeye Flat, bought some goodies at the Visitor Center, My daughter who is 11, LOVED everything about our trip.
There is so much to do here. You can stay here for days. I plan on coming back soon!

Very neat stalagmites and stalactites. They were really beautiful to look at. The walk/​hike was kinda hard for me because I have bad vision and have balance issues. My coworkers helped me through the adventure. Great team building experience.

Okay people, you neeeeeed to go on this drive! I rented a mustang for my trip in San Diego, stayed with a friend in Venice beach, and drove through the mountains with the top down, I had a blast! Once I got into sequoia I was sort of wishing I had my SUV but the views with the top down were fantastic!
This is a huge national park and Unilocal is about to experience a data shortage as I upload about a bazillion and two photos.
To let loose and explore these woods, rivers, roads, and mountains was nothing short of breath taking.
I’m going to let the photos do the rest of the talking:

Before I visited Sequoia & Kings Canyon National Parks, I had read numerous times how it was «similar to Yosemite, but not as crowded.» This is the main reason that I planned an end of the summer trip to the area with my family of four.
This year (2015) marked the 125^th anniversary of Sequoia NP and 75^th anniversary of Kings Canyon NP.
We visited 9÷20−9÷22÷15. While signs of the drought pained me, the «great survivors» as I call them — the Giant Sequoias, were astonishing.
As our two toddlers grow, I see this as a wonderful place which to return. Even at 1 and 2-​years of age we are teaching them about «pack it in, pack it out» and how to protect themselves from potential dangers within the wilderness. I was quite happy to see similar scenarios by other families.
So $ 20 per car to enter for 7 days for the two parks. $ 30 for an entire year. We entered at the southern tip, the Ash Mountain entrance. The northern end has the Big Stump entrance. Nice park rangers.
We didn’t do much of it at all, but I love hiking. There’s plenty of that here with incredible views.
I didn’t see hardly any litter anywhere. (I hope it wasn’t just a coincidence.) If I did it was minimal and we tried to pick up after other people as much as possible. This includes the Foothills Visitor’s Center. Giant Forest Museum. Giant Forest. General Sherman. Lodgepole Campsites. Lodgepole Visitor Center. Lodgepole Village & Market. Not even the countless «pullover areas» that we used going back downhill since no one knows how to downshift. It was refreshing to just notice nature and wildlife as opposed to human waste. If you have keen eyes you should see plenty of wildlife.
Even when it’s 100°F in Three Rivers, it’s a manageable temperature as you travel halfway up the mountain and beyond towards Lodgepole. The air — aside from the smoke from this summer’s brush fires — was crisp and very refreshing especially since we live in the Los Angeles area.
I started paying more attention to these parks only a few years ago. Mainly because I’m not a California native. I believe it was the December 2012 issue of Reader’s Digest that I read about David Milarch, co-​founder of Champion Tree Project & Archangel Ancient Tree Archive. His work is straightforward, yet, so mind-​boggling. His big idea (and to quote the rest of Dawn Raffel’s title of the article) is to «Clone Ancient Trees to Save Planet Earth.» Milarch’s son is one of the tree climbers. I used to get in trouble for climbing my parent’s lone Piñón tree, their pine trees, and other evergreens elsewhere, but to climb a Giant Sequoia?! Chills run up my spine thinking about it.
If you find science, trees, cloning, conservation, and/​or oxygen remotely interesting, you need to catch up on Milarch’s findings. Also, the «Eden Project» in Cornwall, United Kingdom, is birthing a «super grove» of Redwood saplings (hey, they’re giants too… Milarch is helping with this project) that is so amazing in every sense of the word. I hope to cast my gaze upon this spectacle before exiting this life.
Until then Sequoia National Park (and I presume Kings Canyon, although, we did not technically get into its territory) is a must visit.
Review #408
Unilocal challenge ⁸⁹⁄₁₀₀

5 stars for the park and 5 stars for all things nature. During my recent trip to the West Coast, I made it a point visit to Sequoia National Park. It had been about 15 years since my last visit, and being the dumb, ungrateful teenager I was back then, I didn’t really show much of any appreciation. This visit was sooo the complete opposite.
Living in NYC has isolated me from just about everything the natural world has to offer (in terms of views, animals, terrain, etc). Don’t get me wrong, I love living in The City, but seeing a rat king scurrying down a subway track doesn’t qualify as a «nature experience» in my book.
First off, the drive along Rt 198 is perhaps just as memorable as the park itself. For me, driving can be therapeutic, especially if the scenery from the road is gorgeous. But this drive is faaaaar from stress-​free. Once you get to the base of the mountain, the drive up takes about 50 minutes along a 10-​mile stretch of road. I honestly thought when I looked at Google maps it was due to traffic. Wrong. This drive is not for the faint of heart. For those 50 minutes, you’ll be driving along a narrow strip of road with countless hairpin turns (most without guard rails). You really can’t even afford to sneeze without driving off the side of the mountain. Expect to avg about 10 mph during the whole way up. Along the road, there are several lookout points to pull over and take in the gorgeous mountain terrain. Yes, the drive is intense, but simultaneously awesome and exhilarating.
Once you finally get to the heart of the park (6000 – 7500 ft in elevation), you’ll start seeing huge trees line the side of the road. I only made three stops during this visit — Beetle Rock, The Giant Forest, and General Sherman — and spent a good amount of time at each. I won’t get into the details of each sight, as every other Unilocaler has already done that. All I can say is… WOW. The Sequoias almost look cartoonish in their sheer size and appearance. Standing at the base of one of these trees, you gain perspective on how massive these wonders of nature actually are. It was breathtaking and completely humbling to walk among these giants. Definitely an experience I won’t soon forget.
Unfortunately, due to all the rough fires throughout California during my visit, Kings Canyon was closed and haze from the smoke limited the visibility of the landscapes. Even so, that did little to dampen my spirits after seeing and experiencing what I already had. Plus, it just gives me another excuse to come back again. ‘Til next time…

This place is stunningly beautiful and we saw it through the at times thick smoke of the Rough fire in Kings Canyon NP. We can only imagine how it would be in clear air with far views. We spent most of our truncated trip in Sequoia and really enjoyed all of the stops and short hikes we did to see the magnificent trees. The Big Tree walk near the museum and the Congress trail were both worth the effort in the Giant Forest. The small museum was very interesting and informative. The climb up Moro rock was a good puff but the views were severely limited by the smoke.
Since Hwy180 was closed beyond the Grant Grove in Kings Canyon we were not able to see the canyon itself — we will be back! Grants Grove was amazing with more stupendous trees. We even did the big stump trail as a reminder of what could have been if there had not been visionaries like John Muir.
We’ve been to most of the major National Parks and this is one of the best.

I fall in love every time I return to these trees.
The kids and I only spent a week hiking and exploring, but it was enough to see a good chunk of the park — and for the kids this was their first time seeing the beauty that is Sequoia.
Our main goal was the Crystal Cave, a place of mystery and shadow that we have heard so much about — it delivered in spades. If you get a chance to visit the Crystal Cave, please go it’s a beautiful tour and the guides (especially the guides for the Discovery tour) are exceptionally helpful and knowledgeable.
However that being said, the drive out to the cave is a nine mile trek through the back side of the western Sierra Nevada mountains — a drive that left me wondering just where the heck civilization had gotten off to and if quite possibly we might see a Big Foot or two mender down the side of an embankment and cross the road in front of us from any one of the dozen or so blind five mile and hour corners.
Of course we did eventually find civilization. The kids have never been so happy to discover an actual parking lot. Once out of the car and all checked in with the staff, I realized that we now faced a half mile decent nearly straight down the side of the canyon to the cave.
Spoiler alert, the trek down was the easy part.
The return hike back up from the canyon floor to the parking lot was one that I swear only mountain goats would choose to take. About half way up, I found myself bent over and gasping for air and having one of my rare epiphany moments — I use the term epiphany lightly as it implies insightfulness colored by a bit of cleverness, perhaps announced by a herald of angles or at least by one of those gifted choir groups from «America’s Got Talent».
Alas, no, this epiphany was barely a dim sputter of a half cracked light bulb found in some back room of a fog shroud abounded hotel where folks love to make ax murder movies.
My insight?
In between gasps, I found religion and had to acknowledge (not out loud thank goodness, but at least to myself) that listening to my doctor was probably a good thing and that I should get my ass in some sort of shape besides that of a «pear» or possible even denounce beacon double cheese burgers and take up a religion that doesn’t allow the consumption of chocolate (that last one will be a toughie).
Long story short, if you do visit the Crystal Cave be prepared to hike your butt off on the return trip to the parking lot. But it’s worth it and I wouldn’t trade one gasping breath to have missed it.

With less traffic than Yosemite, and $ 20 entrance fee for 7 day pass, my family and I explored Sequoia National Park with less stress and more time to enjoy the beauty. The drive through the National Park had a lot of switchback and it is not easy for the motion sickness people to sit through it. It takes a good 30 – 40 minutes after you pass the entrance gate to actually reach the Sequoia trees. The drive up there is amazing and it really makes you realize how small we are when you’re driving among the giant trees.
Remember to drive on low gear, especially when you’re going down since you’re braking a lot and lower gear will allow less strains on your brakes.
The main attraction for Sequoia are Tunnel Rock, General Sherman, Crystal Cave, and Moro Rock. I think there are mainly hikes and camping activities to do here but not much water activities.
I think a day trip was enough for my family in contrast to Yosemite, where we needed at least two days to enjoy our visit.

De toute beauté. Un parc de touuuuuuute beauuuuuuuuté.
Ce parc est magnifique surtout quand il est fait après tous les canyons et surtout après avoir visité Vegas. Ici, changement de décor. Adieu crevasses roses et oranges. Adieu roches sculptées naturellement. Bonjour verdure. Bonjour havre de paix. Un endroit superbe remplit de séquoias immenses. Le plus haut, c’est le général Sherman, qui fait pas moins de 83 mètres !
Une balade magnifique, en pleine forêt préservée, ou gambadent animaux en tout genre mais par dessus tout des petits écureuils qui viendront de coller a vous pour leur plus grand plaisir (et le votre), et bien évidemment, ils viendront quémander un peu de nourriture en échange de jolies posés devant l’appareil! Mémorable :)).

Die Mammutbäume sind unbeschreiblich schön und vor allem hoch. Der Der General Sherman Tree ist über 83m ! hoch und hat einen Umfang von 31,3m, und zählt somit zu den gewaltigsten Bäumen im Park. Um zum General Sherman zu kommen geht man auch an anderen Mammutbäumen vorbei. Die Strecke ist schön angelegte und man sieht viel Eichhörnchen. Wölfe haben wir auch gesehen.
Wer in der Nähe ist sollte den abstecher machen um sich den Park anzusehen.
