Jay is off to explore an opening in between two Redwoods. We were happy that he returned after his investigation.... he did leave us the keys...just in case.
A gigantic Redwood along the scenic tour off of HWY 101. The tallest Redwood stands 380 ft tall. The largest diameter of a Redwood is 23 1/2 ft. I just love how grand they are!
The view from the highway. It was beautiful to drive through.
The kids thought this tree was very cool. A fire had caused some damage and created a nice cave in the middle of the tree. We learned that the Redwood is resistant to forest fires and it's outer bark layer is 12" thick...wow that's as big as most of our Poplar Trees!
No-the kids did not cause this tree to topple over, but they did enjoy climbing on it since it was done.
