Sequoia National Park

 


lots of fire damage as we drove up to the Giant Forest area










It's not clear why the Crystal Caves were closed




when we got to the General Sherman area, we saw a deer, which was surprising, usually there is no sign of animal life up there. 




the line of people waiting to take a picture in front of the General Sherman sign


the General Sherman tree



another shocking thing, we saw a black bear and her cub right near the Sherman tree. She was digging into the bark for a few minutes, but then a ranger shouted and chased her off. 


some views on the way back down


Morro Rock - you can see a lot of the dead trees
