Into Sequoia Natuonal Park

We had timeto kill so after leaving the fruit stand we climbed into the Sierras, climbing to around 6000 feet and dropping 30 degrees. The clouds had rolled in but the mid 50s air felt gone to use ad wr walked the sandy Grants Grove. It is busy there but you can't help but feel awe as you look ip and up and around at the massive red-brown trunks of trees a couple hundred feet tall and seval feet in diameter.
