Kings Canyon & Sequoia National Parks and Sequoia National Forest
5-19-13 
In place of majestic peaks and rocks the size of mountains, this park area had peaceful forests and towering sequoia trees.  Some of these sequoia trees are 3,000 years old.  One of them, General Sherman, is the biggest tree in the world - not in height or breadth, but in overall volume.  We can't get over how varied the experiences are that we are having from one day to the next.
