After Utah (part 1) and Death Valley (part 2), we explored the Sequoia National Forest and finally saw the giant sequoia's, the world's oldest and tallest living organisms. (Finally, since we miserably failed during last year trip from Oregon, as I hit some metal cord on the road, and instead of coastal Redwoods we spent two days in creepy town of Eureka - but that's totally another story.)
Leaving the Death Valley, we were met by the cacti along the road...
... and (base) camped near Isabella Lake on the border with the Sequoia National Forest
From the base camp we explored the neighbourhood
Living and dead giants...
Treebeard Green beard of the trees and emerald greens of the undergrowth
And the road goes ever on and on through the bridges with backpacking dogs...
... through the fields...
...through yellow grass and boulders
... to the next stop: magical Yosemite Valley.
P.S. Since the post is not very long I figured I put a small flashback here, to Hoover Dam, where we stopped between Utah and Death Valley. Just couple of pictures
