Sequoia National Park


A felled sequoia along the Congress Trail in Sequoia National Park.

I knocked a couple of National Parks off the old bucket list last month. No huge climbs or anything. It was nice to just relax and do the usual tourist stuff. We enjoyed having our friends Millie and Casey along. Good times.

We camped at the Potwisha Campground  and spent one day in Sequoia. We camped the next night in Yosemite Valley--those photos are coming in a separate post.

The General Sherman tree.

Susie and Millie mingle with roots of the Buttress sequoia. This tree was estimated to be about 2,300 years old before it fell without warning in 1959.
