“When I entered this sublime wilderness, the day was nearly done, the trees with rosy, glowing countenances seemed to be hushed and thoughtful, as if waiting in conscious religious dependence on the sun, and one naturally walked softly, awestricken among them. ~John Muir
For me, Sequoia National Park was the highlight of our travels so far. This area has immense beauty and grandeur. It is located in the southern part of the Sierra Nevada Mountain Range which contains the tallest mountain in the “Lower 48,” Mount Whitney (maybe that was the one we climbed last night!) as well as the largest tree on earth, the General Sherman tree.
