Sequoia National Park

After a harrowing drive up a mountain on an extremely windy road with tight hair pin turns, we ended up in the southern tip of Sequoia National Park where we walked around groves of these majestic trees.  We even stopped for a photo op at General Sherman, the largest tree in the world.  As we were out goggling at the enormity of these trees, we stumbled across this not-so-little but tiny-in-comparison guy:
The size of these trees is hard to explain.  To get an idea, you can see the root ball of one of the smaller sequoia trees in the grove: 
Our large F250 truck was even able to drive through one of these monstrosities:
Toward the end of the day, the four of us climbed up 400 steps to the top of Moro Rock.  The view was spectacular.
