Sierra Nevada Giants: Redwood Documentary #retro #shorts #interesting
Today we explore the Giant Forest of Sequoia National Park in Tulare County, California. The giant sequoia (Sequoiadendron giganteum) can live for up to 2,000 years! So how do they handle forest fires?
The most famous one is probably General Sherman, the largest tree on earth by volume.
Sequoia National Park is a national park of the United States in the southern Sierra Nevada east of Visalia, California. The park was established on September 25, 1890, and today protects 404,064 acres (631 sq mi; 163,519 ha; 1,635 km2)[2] of forested mountainous terrain. Encompassing a vertical relief of nearly 13,000 feet (4,000 m), the park contains the highest point in the contiguous United States, Mount Whitney, at 14,505 feet (4,421 m) above sea level.
