Hiking In The Redwoods

Redwood trees, are a sight that every outdoors person should see at least once in their lifetime. I’ve often said being in the mountains is good for your ego, they remind you just how insignificant you are in the grand scheme of history, best not to get a big head after all. The redwood trees of Northern California have a similar effect, it’s hard not to come to grips with the fact that these trees are much older than we are, and they’ll be here, with a little bit of protection, far after you and I have expired. My high school friend’s mom Mrs. Schnuck often said “Don’t forget to look up” because she loved birds and wished for more people to experience them as she did. In the redwoods, you can’t help but look up.
