Very nice and informative video. I remember visiting this park when I was a teenager. A must revisit when I secure my new transportation. 6 like ..................
Found this information, "For some millions of years, these trees have grown along our coast, watered by long wet winters, usually frost-free, shielded from hot, dry inland summers by Pacific fog - the heat of the inland summer drags in the fog that bathes the forest. In an ecology known for fire, the forest cools its domain, its thick, red bark defends the tree itself. Remarkably, the trees themselves collect moisture, “intercepting” fog moisture, some of which is absorbed by the trees leaves, the rest that is collected drips to the earth below, into gardens of ferns and flowers, redwood sorrel and rhododendron. In 1850, this forest was 2,000 square miles, 1,280,00 acres that stretched some 450 miles; it was often little more than twenty miles in width."
Thanks very much! It was a lovely forest to walk through. Not as many big hikes as some other national parks. More about conserving the land and the spectacular trees and other plants and creatures.
Always wanted to visit redwood national park, it reminds me of the old cedar tree growth around Olympia national park. Sadly, they have been heavily logged and aren’t very many left.
Enjoyed walking with you! Interesting information and shots as we went.
Glad you enjoyed it. Thanks for watching!
What a peaceful place 🙂
Yes, very peaceful and serene!

Yes, it was incredible to visit so many old growth redwoods in the same place. So unfortunately unusual
They’re different than the Olympics. I love both.
