The towering giants at Sequoia National Park in California
Why are you reporting this puzzle?
"Everyone has seen a tree. Their branches and bark are familiar to us. We know what to expect when we look at them, touch them and smell them. Maybe that’s why visiting the towering giants at Sequoia and Kings Canyon National Parks in California is so overwhelming. The sequoias are trees, but somehow more than trees. You can expect them to be tall, but seeing them for the first time is a jarring experience. How can something so familiar feel so astounding? It’s just something you have to experience for yourself. Photographer Antonina Pattiz remembers her visit well, “The scene felt like pure magic because we were the only ones on the trail. In the quiet chill of the January air, we felt like we had the world at our feet." -- America's Great Outdoors
