Giant Sequoia trees can be seen along the trail. It is amazing to see these trees up close.
The Colonel Young Tree sits just off the Bear Hill Trail and recognizes the contribution of Colonel Charles Young, a Buffalo Soldier who became the first African American national park superintendent.

Everywhere you look, there are Giant Sequoias. Here, a large group sits just off the trail. Did these all start growing at the same time? Did their seeds all come from the same tiny sequoia cone?
Giant Sequoias provide shade during the hike at all hours of the day, making this a great hike even in the heat of the day.
Sequoia trees, both living and dead, can be seen throughout the hike.
