Sequoia & Kings Canyon National Parks
The Giant Forrest of Sequoias is undoubtedly the
most inspiring thing you will see -- they are so
massive they challenge your eyes and your belief.
In 1875 a giant Sequoia was cut down, cut apart for
transport, and shipped to Philadelphia, PA for the
Centennial. When reassembled, all who saw it
immediately dismissed the tree as a California hoax.
Perhaps even more impressive than a Sequoia’s size
is its age. In the range of 2000 to 3000 years old,
Sequoias are among the oldest living things on earth.
Their legacy is unimaginable. Hike through giant
groves and around fallen wonders that have survived
countless forest fires and thousands of years.
