Hanging Rock, Sequoia National Park
Hanging Rock at sunset.
Moro Rock at sunset seen from the Hanging Rock Spur Trail.
You can see fire damage to the sequoia trees along the trail. Some trees are still standing, but others have fallen or are just remains of large trees.
Giant Sequoia trees can be seen along the trail. It is amazing to see these trees up close.
Moro Rock can be seen through the trees from the trail.
For trees so big, you would expect the cones to be much bigger. However, the sequoia cone can literally fit in the palm of your hand. Fire opens these up and allows the seeds to release and new trees to grow.
