It turns out that this is a great time to visit Redwood National Park. It’s a little late for the rhododendrons, but the ferns are bright green with new growth. This tree is in the Stout Grove, which is jointly managed with the State of California as part of Jedediah Smith Redwoods State Park.

  • We were down near those redwoods just a few days after your posting date. June 27th for us, at Jedediah Smith redwoods, and Redwood National Park. Probably the brightest light I've taken photos in at the redwoods so far. A few keepers for memories anyway.

    May hop to the flickr link for you photo and see what else you have posted.

    Cheers,
