Travel with Tara : Sequoia National Park, California!

in #travel7 years ago (edited)

The one thing I love about Sequoia National Park is the drive through that beautiful forest!
The air so so clean and crisp, I could feel myself healing from the inside!
It was a very special trip for me in the US.
It was so fascinating to be surrounded by such HUGE trees!
I'm not exaggerating, they are just massive!
And all those giants are born from a tiny little seed that is the size of an oatmeal!

There are several tiny seeds encased within that cone.
I believed the whole cone was just one big seed!

Morro Rock is one huge rock and you can trek till the top.
There are several steps along the trail till the top.
I did not trek the rock, but I would love to some day!

Behold, The General Sherman!
  • The largest known living single stem tree on Earth, by volume! Isn't it amazing?*
    It's really difficult to tell from the picture, but this tree is humongous!!

    That's a slice of a giant tree log!
    These trees are really ancient.

    We came across this tiny little bear cub!

    It was very tiny ans it looked ill.
    The forest officials were around trying to capture it and give it proper medical treatment.
