Redwoods

We drove out along a dirt road in the Redwoods National and State park into the Stout Grove and hiked the Boy Scout Tree trail. We were continuously blown away by the sheer mass of these trees. After the hike we stopped for a picnic lunch and swim along the Smith River. This river too was awe inspiring because of it’s clarity and deep aqua color. It was also very refreshing (read cold) and had offered good cliff jumping. We then went back to Christy and Stephens where we had dinner followed by a little fire and s’mores and time in the hot tub. All in all a great day!
