Simpson-Reed Redwood Grove

We drove to Simpson-Reed Redwood Grove, it's an area that has walking trails through the giant trees. Walking amongst the majestic giants was serene. I love nature and the feeling it gives me to be able to experience the beauty God has created for us. We have never seen such large patches of clover some the size of a baby's hand, the ferns remind me of fine delicate lace lining the forest floor giving it a magical look with the rays of sun giving it a fairytale setting. It's hard to believe that the giant redwoods were in danger of becoming extinct because of over logging in some areas, with the help of State and Federal government intervening the large majestic trees are being protected so future generations will be able to experience their grandeur. The Coast Redwoods are the tallest trees in the world.  They can grow to a height of 379 feet or more, and be as old as 2,000 years old. Look how tiny we look next to the trees.


Twisted roots

That's the roots of a fallen tree!

Felt so tiny next to this big boy!
