We have two ranger friends in Sequoia National Park (about 2 hours north of LA). One whom walked us in to meet the one who lives in the back country each summer. Without both of them, we might still be there struggling.
The scenery is very diverse and simply amazing. We parked our car at 9,000 feet, camped for the night and set off the next morning to counquer 14 miles at 11,000 feet.
Most of the trees we saw were fox tail pines. They grow very slowly and when they are hit by lightening, like this one, split in half and smell like a christmas tree!
