Thank you very much. I did go as a young teenager (first time) but didn’t appreciate it. I went again in my late 40s and wow!!! The trees are other worldly.
@@JustReckles5 yes, very much! There was a thick fog throughout, which made it even more spectacular! The views from Morro Rock were next to zero. It was great! Very much recommended
@patrickcrews3977 niiiice I went around the time you went, it was absolutely stunning, I've never been while there was fog, it felt as if I were atop of the world
I've been watching videos all day about this area, trying to plan a trip. Your video is easily the most concise, while having the most necessary info. Thank you! Excellent work
Thank you very much, that was such a nice to hear. I was planning on going back this year because it's so incredible and was only there for a couple of days last year - may have to be next year. Hope you get to go!
Thank you very much. The one thing I regret was not taking a photo of me or the family in front of one of these amazing trees. Just forgot to do it. Be sure you take a photo of yoruself in front of the trees as they are beyond incredible.
Thank you very much. I was just in the area - for half a day - and did a couple more very quick videos. Should be out in a couple of months. Enjoy your time there next year - it's very special.
This was my first video guide to Sequoia National Park, thank you for such an outstanding effort. I now have more info and ideas to follow, thanks again. We are planning a two stop visit, Sequoia first with Kings Canyon, 3 nights or so, then on to Yosemite for 4 or 5 nights. We are thinking to arrive late May or first week of June, any advice? We love America and are trying to visit as many wonders as possible in one lifetime 🇺🇸❤️🏴
Thank you very much for the wonderful comment. I think you're traveling at a great time of year - still busy in Yosemite but not as mad crazy as in the middle of summer. I've seen snow in Yosemite in places during May, so be prepared.
They are amazing - the older I get the more incredible they appear (I did not apprexiste them as much as I should have when I first saw them as a teenager). I hope you go!
Yes it is however, there are parts of the park that are closed during the winter (such as the Mineral King area). Here is a good place to check: www.nps.gov/seki/planyourvisit/conditions.htm
Good question - late June is better for weather but not for crowds. I would personally go in April and avoid the crowds (although the weather may not be quite as good).
Hi there - I do not believe there are EV chargers in the park, yet. There are EV stations in Three Rivers as well as Visalia and Fresno. Here is the website to check - it could change? www.nps.gov/seki/planyourvisit/gasstation.htm
I’m in Los Angeles wanting to go. But I don’t know if I should go to the sequoia national park or the forest!! Are they different? Will I see sequoias at both places ? I’m lost and need help
So - I was hoping someone else would reply as I know Sequoia National Park, having been there many times in my life but I have never been to Sequoia NF. I know the Forest is much larger (3x larger I believe?) and of course, there are many simliarities. I am also aware of the magnificent Trail of 100 Giants in the National Forest. They are also managed by different agencies - however, I am aware I haven't really answered your question but wanted you to have some reply. I'm hoping someone with more knowledge that I have of BOTH can help you out.

Im grateful that i have yosemite national park. Sierra national forest, and kings canyon/ sequoia national park in my back yard. I live in Clovis California
@@traveleaz yes in kern county which is the borel fire. Also in Northern California you have the park fire in butte county. However in my region no. Thankfully no fires
Good question - most searches on the internet say June to August, but it's too busy in my opinion. I much prefer mid-September to mid-October (if the weather holds).
There were people to go walking or camling etc times of "!" that certain ones getting in hide and seek and fighting of ways like then out of other ways any where but it happened thete in the woods but this was at the one mile hike thats theres a sign for a 1 mile hike or a 99 miles hike that leads the opposite way and the one mile hike gos around something green. And tall trees there in the surrounding and further out somewhere but you can check of those trees around too.

Thanks. This is the best information I have found so far.
Thank you! Going again soon, although need to do a Kings Canyon video!
The sequoias and redwoods parks are great❤ places to visit
I cannot disagree - the sequoias and redwods are incredble and I cannot wait to go back (which should be soon)
One day I will be visit at this place
I hope you do! The first time you see one of these enormous trees you will know it was worth it. Thank you for the comment.
Wow. Thank you so much for this video!!!
Thank you very much for the comment - I really appreciate it!
Going there tomorrow. Thanks for all info
You're there today! I hope you enjoy the park.

How is the weather in november during thanksgiving?
Not bad. The National Weather Service says they're only expecting two feet of snow.
Goodness, I only now saw your comment. So sorry but happy someone else replied.
A great informational video, Nicely done! We look forward to a 2024 trip here.

How is the weather late march/early April? Is there a high probability i will miss out on some activities? Due to snow
So good - love your work. Heading to the park in a couple of weeks - is everything still open in September?
Thank you! Yes everything is still in September. Great time of year to visit the park. Enjoy it.
I checked the website, seems Crystal Cave is closed
@@traveleazWhat is open in late December from Fresno airport to Wuksachi? Ideally 180, but if closed I guess 198.
I heard the crystal cave road is closed @@traveleaz
@@charronfamilyconnect You're right - and the cave is closed for the entire 2024
I would love to see sequoias one day
They are amazing - the older I get the more incredible they appear (I did not apprexiste them as much as I should have when I first saw them as a teenager). I hope you go!
You must! It feels like you enter a portal into a wonderland!
@@traveleaz Thank you!
Awesome video! Me and my mother are going together for Mother’s Day today!

Apple made a great decision choosing to honour Sequoia.
🍏👍🏻
Would you recommend going there first week of April? Or late June?
Good question - late June is better for weather but not for crowds. I would personally go in April and avoid the crowds (although the weather may not be quite as good).
@@traveleaz thank you! 😊
How long, to see the most Points of interrest, must i spend there? Visit planned in Sep this year. Thx
Hello, I know you said fill up for gas but would there EV chargers at the park? Thanks for sharing and info.
Hi there - I do not believe there are EV chargers in the park, yet. There are EV stations in Three Rivers as well as Visalia and Fresno. Here is the website to check - it could change? www.nps.gov/seki/planyourvisit/gasstation.htm
Knowing these giants only exist because their roots are entertained below them is humbling

Glad Lincoln saved the forests of California even though he never visited.

I'm a little jealous, as I haven't done what you did. That's the best way to enjoy this great park.

Thank you. I plan on heading back soon. Cannot wait

Not permitet to have bear spray?! What to do when animal attacted me? Just die?
I know! I think I read that this is so due to no grizzlies - but, I've seen some pretty aggressvie black bears too. Gotta have bear spray.

Crystal cave has been closed for years.
Yes, it has been closed since 2021 (according to the NPS). The Park is hoping to open it again this year, 2024.

How u supposed to defend urself against a bear if u cant carry bear spray? Lol.
I know! The presumption is that black bears aren't dangerous - but they can be! And, why can we take bear spray into some parks and not others?
Learn how to fight
I hope EVs are banned, don’t want the wonderful trees to burn.
Gas cars are more likely to start a fire
Dumb logic! No wonder ICE tooting people drag down human progress
Combustion engine.

What are the odds?
Hope combustion cars are banned for being ancient technology
