One of the perks of where we were staying in Brookings, Oregon was the close proximity to the Redwoods in California. We spent a day and drove into California to see these legendary trees. I don’t think either one of us ever really had them on our “bucket list” because it seemed like a far off idea that we’d get there. Our drive into Oregon took us on a short dip into California where we got our first glimpse of the Redwoods we were hoping to see.
We headed to Crescent City to make our way into the Jedediah Smith Redwoods State Park and the Redwood National Parks. We had done some research and we found a path that went through the park via the Howland Hill Road. We stopped many, many times on the narrow dirt road we took through the parks and were awed by the enormority of the trees and beauty surrounding us.
We spent several hours along this road and found a small pub to have lunch at before we headed back to Oregon for the evening.
