Hello to all my Steemians !!

Visit with me!! Big Basin California

Ever wonder the where oldest trees are ?

@splendorhub How old.JPG

The age of a tree can be determined by counting the layers or rings. Each year a tree increases in size by adding a new layer of wood outside the old.

...and into the forest I go, to lose my mind and find my soul.

The first and oldest state park in California, Big Basin offers magnificent views of giant redwood trees, mountains, streams, waterfalls and even sweeping ocean views.

Here you will find some of the oldest trees on the planet! Scientist estimate that some may be as old as 1,000 to 2,000 years.

With every changing season, the park offers a unique experience all year round.

The park boasts some amazing trails. Some of these trails are difficult and some are mere strolls in amazingly scenic areas of the park.

Coast redwoods are the tallest trees in the world.

Trees with holes big enough for several persons to stay in. These holes were caused by fire from lightning strike but the tree is still alive

In their stretch toward the sun, they can reach heights of over 375 feet. Redwoods dominate the forest.

This place is gorgeous with plenty to do such as hikes, camping, nature photographing and plenty to learn. Information is available at the visitors office.

If you live in California you definitely want to make sure you visit Big Basin at least once in your lifetime. This has made it to one of my favorite places I've visited.

Thank you for your comment :)

Greetings, beautiful Miss Splendor

Many thanks for this tutorial about the park. I found it very beautiful. I imagine it must be a place of great peace and it seems that it is not a place of great visitation, because there were only you and your little dog in the photo.

I like nature very much and I saw that there, besides being in a peaceful environment, you can swim, run, walk and enjoy this walk in various ways.

I found the photo of your dog very nice. I have my shitzu dog named Miya and I do not live without her one day.

Thank you very much for the post. Good evening!!!!!

Thank you for your comment. This place is highly recommended by yours truly. 😊 oh my... my puppy’s name is Mika. 🙄 Best wishes to you !!
