California is a fertile, peaceful place where you’ll find a near-equal balance of vineyards and deserts, beaches and mountains, hippies and traditionalists. Catch an epic wave in Big Sur or swirl a glass in Napa Valley. Be dazzled by the Joshua Tree night sky or just star-gaze in Hollywood. Swish down the slopes of a Tahoe ski resort, or cruise across the Golden Gate Bridge with the top down and the music blasting. Above all, don’t forget to soak up some Golden State sunshine.

This place looks like something you’d see in a travel magazine. It’s a great place to fish, hike, canoe, etc and enjoy the beautiful scenery. One of the most serene places in all of California.

The section of the Redwood National Park with the tallest trees.
We visit Tall Tree Grove in the morning, the drive up to the trail head was quite foggy. Because it only limited to 50 permits each day, we did not see many other visitors when we hike down the trail until we reached the creek. The trail was very well maintained and marked. We truly enjoy surrounding by these amazing redwood trees. It was a moderate hike going back up, about 800 ft vertical drop.

A great area for mountain biking.
We had a great time in Tahoe National Forest. This is a large forest with lots of things to do in the Sierra Mountains We had a wonderful time doing a hike, seeing Lake Tahoe, and spending time in the forest.

109 degrees in Bakersfield. 100 degrees in lone Pine. 74 degrees at the bristlecone Forest. This is a perfect four mile hike. You will see amazing scenery, 3000 year old trees, and fantastic geology. The hike is rated as moderate, but this is probably due to the frequent up and down – changes in elevation. The interpretive signs are some of the best I've ever seen. If you're not up for a 4-mile hike they have a 1-mile alternative. If you're not up for a hike at all, just drive up there and walk a hundred yards or so up the trail and you will see these amazing trees. It really helps to read up on the geology and the history of the trees before you get there. I stopped here on a web driving from Mammoth lakes to Bakersfield. I'm certainly glad I did. Note: September 2020, visitor Center was not open and there is no one at the gate a few miles up the road. There were plenty of other visitors, but you are definitely on your own. No mobile phone service at the trailhead. At high altitudes you might get a brief signal.

Awesome time to visit these huge trees.I am happy to see the General Grant and Sherman trees before they go up in flames from the wild fires of California. I visited all the National Parks in California before it is gone.

Stanislaus National Forest, created on February 22, 1897, is among the oldest of the national forests. You can fish in over 800 miles of rivers and streams, stay in a campground, or hike. The Calaveras Big Trees State Park is also here.
