Muir Woods Sequoia trees - California


IMG_7091, originally uploaded by Jared Zimmerman.

The Muir woods is a stand of ancient Sequoia trees located just north of San Fransisco in California. It is probably the Sequoia area that is closest to a major urban center.

It is also a place were you can go to practice your "First Amendment" rights! I´ll bet you did not know that there were only select places such as this were you are free to practice your constitutional rights (as a US citizen that is). Hmm, I wonder who thought up this sign?

It's a magnificent forest, in fact all remaining redwoods are. One walks around, continuously amazed. In many places it's easy to imagine that elves would appear. Truly mystical and majestic!

I have a big collection of tree images, many from the tropics, and would be happy to see some appear on this very wonderful tree blog!

Look for Wakx

Hi, Dan, thanks for commenting on my blog a couple days back. You commented on my post about the Santa Monica Treesavers.

You've got some beautiful photos here! Nice trees!

I live in a grove of mature Coastal Live Oaks in Southern California. I'll try to do a blog post about them soon, because they are, in fact, magnificent.

Thanks!!

I loved reading about John Muir in past books and was delighted to find this post...assuming the woods were named in honor of him. :D

Super photo and post. I had no idea signs like that existed.

Thanks for sharing – There are couple of others which I think deserve a mention like 99 Designs etc. It will be great if you could also feature some UX sources in the list!
