I remember going here and to other parts of Redwoods State Park, way back in the 1980s. It was magical. Camping and hiking there were the best memories in my life. Oregon also has beautiful forests and camping spots. I feel like I'm really at home when I'm there and hate to leave. It might have been Big Basin that had the trail that led up into the mountain, where I was standing in clouds. That was crazy. It's sad to see how some parts of the forests have changed and shrunk since then. When I was 13 my family abruptly moved to Missouri AKA Mis-er-y. It's very humid in the Summer which is nasty, and it's full of BUGS. Which makes enjoying the outdoors impossible. Especially with all the spider webs across trails. That's one thing I loved about the Pacific Northwest, especially Redwoods State Park, the trees act as an insect repellant. Occasionally I'd run into a wisp of a spider web on trails, see some ants, or have to contend with some mosquitoes at night, but that's about it.
Beautiful video!! So upsetting that the park is temporarily closed due to the fires :(( thank you for sharing your adventure through it with us!! Can’t wait to go once it’s open 🥺
big basin is a huge park, you can access it from the beach on rt 1 for free, its a vast wilderness, very cool for mountain biking in my opinion up near sandy point and chalk mountain
Thank you for posting this video. I went here as a kid with my dad 50 yrs ago. Now its all burned. No more banana slugs for awhile. Gov Brown-nose and Gov Nuisance spent money on other things and not park maintenance. Seems spending money on illegals is more important than 1000 year old redwoods. Anyway thanks again for the video. There is something to look back on. A Time Portal.

Google shows its temporarily close but when going to the website it says that some parts are open ]. Hmm? Ill be heading that way in a couple weeks.
Nice video! We've been wanting to do this hike! We were just there to do do the short hike to Sempervirens falls. Cannot wait to explore more!
Great video. I love Big Basin :)
Thanks for the comment, I appreciate it!
Good video josh from Australia and deff gonna check this place out !!
Awesome, it is a great park if you like to hike
As of this morning (08/21/20), rumor has it Big Basin Redwoods State Park... is gone. Decimated by the fires.
This was awesome! And glad you found that banana slug😆!
2 Banana Slug state, nice!
Great video, thanks for the info! What is the app you were using to track the hike?
Cool video!
Heavy fire damage after that super amazing lighting storm August 2020 😭 so sad
diese gut
Where would I stay if I wanted to spend a week in Santa Cruz?
There's hotels by the santa cruz beach boardwalk. But not sure if it's open due to corona.
Does anyone have suggestions on easy hikes around this area? I'm taking my mom and she probably can't handle the moderate trails
There are some easy trails for handicap people, but I'm not sure how the park has changed since the fires.
Check n.y. times for story of the fire that swep thru the park today.
Came here cuz of the fire. RIP to the Park
banana slugs are everywhere, nice video
haha I was looking all over for them and only saw those few at the end, it was a beautiful area though
big basin is a huge park, you can access it from the beach on rt 1 for free, its a vast wilderness, very cool for mountain biking in my opinion up near sandy point and chalk mountain
Thanks for the tips, I can't wait to spend more time exploring it!
RIP
you didn't seem too motivated
Hu hu hu 😭 burnt to the ground
NO MUSIC PLS
How can someone sleep at night making a song with only three chords playing throughout
Great video about an awesome park. Too bad the governor won't allow us in there because we might catch the flu.
bigfoot time
