Camping in the high Sierras - 7000' - among giant trees.

Here you see the base - with the fire scar - of the largest living thing on earth, the tree named the General Sherman. (largest by volume, not the tallest) It would take something like ten sperm
whales to equal its mass!


















We need two pictures to get most of it!



















Here we stand around a 'smaller' one Ava and I with Linda Thomas;
these trees have big feet.
