Sequoia tree




Several years ago we went to Sequoia National Park. It's hard to imagine how big the sequoia tree is without seeing one. I have included a picture that shows my daughter standing in one so you can have a point of reference. Make sure to click on the picture with the sign so you can read about the biggest living thing on earth or you can read about it here. Also notice all the burn marks on the trees in the bottom picture. About all the trees there had burn marks. I read somewhere that the bark of the sequoia tree can be up to 2 feet thick.
