Sequoia & Kings Canyon
Kings Canyon NP-
Sequoia was America’s second national park designated in 1890. General Grant National Park, the forerunner of
Kings Canyon, was the third, established in 1940. Together they are a combined total of: 865,964 acres, 1,353 square miles.
Coming here and seeing this forest and these trees is an experience, it is a humbling adventure for your spirit. It gives you perspective and teaches you your place in the world.
To the Parks!
The drive is long but as the deserts turn into mountains a small stretch of land is apperently perfect for citrus.
Halo Citrus Farm- I ate a few right off the tree and OMG!
