Sequoia & Kings Canyon NP, California
While perusing the Grant Grove gift shop in Sequoia and Kings Canyon National Parks, I couldn’t help but overhear a conversation between a young couple and the old Park Ranger behind the counter. The couple, looking for tips on what trails to take and areas to see, asked the Ranger, “we’re going to the giant sequoias in Grant Grove, what can we expect to see?”
The Ranger, being perfectly serious, looked at the couple and said matter-of-factly “very big trees.”
