Tag Archives: Sequoia trees

Time Wrap

I am going in reverse here but I just realised I still didn’t show you photos of the Sequoias from our recent trip to Sequoia and Kings Canyon National Park, in California.

My first encounter looked like this:

Wow it is so big and tall, amazing

Then we found more and more of them:

Those Sequoia trees are really amazing

After inspecting the inside of a group of Sequoias I tried to see if they reach the clouds:

Very impressive indeed, when you stand near the Sequoia trees

And this is what I saw:

Awesome, breath taking trees

Joe wanted me to go up one but I sent him instead:

The most famous of the trees, like the one called General Sherman:

The largest tree of them all

Are now fenced to try and help them last longer, so you can’t really get close to the tree and appreciate it.

I think I preferred the ones that I could touch and stand right next to and admire:

I couldn\'t have enough of those huge Sequoia trees

I think this photo summarize well my opinion about these Sequoias:

I can\'t even see where this Sequoia ends!

In another part of this amazing park we saw young Sequoias. I was quite disappointed to learn that there is not much chance I will be around to see them in their full glory (it takes about 3,000 years).

Oh well, maybe in my next life.
