As promised, here are some more photos from my camping trip to Sequoia National Park and Kings Canyon.
Our tent was in the middle of all the gorgeous scenery.
The park rangers were very serious about storing ALL food in these bear-safe boxes. The idea of a visit from bears kindof scared me, but as you can tell we weren't eaten by bears. :)
"General Sherman is a famous Sequoia Tree in the park. It has the biggest diameter in the whole park. The next photo of Brandon standing on the tile circle shows the actual diameter of General Sherman. It was so impressive and awe inspiring for me to see.
Hume Lake was the perfect place to stop and picnic on our drive over to Kings Canyon ("The Little Yosemite"). There is actually a summer camp at this lake where I was a camp counselor a few years ago. It was so fun to see it again.
Some surprise visitors... should I become a wildlife photographer? No, I don't think so either. :)
This meadow in Kings Canyon was one of my favorite places of the whole trip.
I highly encourage anyone to visit these beautiful locations. I hope that it is as refreshing and renewing for you as it was for me. Enjoy!

I see you've been working a lot... nice
Hi, you take gorgeous pictures :)
The pictures are terrific. Those pictures are worthy to be included in National Geographic. Thanks for a very interesting and amazing post.
I am working on a new website at http://www.recreationparks.net and have a park page specifically about Sequioa National Park. You can find it here http://www.recreationparks.net/CA/tulare/sequoia-national-park-triple-divide-peak. I'd love to get feedback from you and your readers about the site, ideas for what regional information to add, etc. Also I would love you to include some of your photos. I know people would enjoy seeing them. I'm hoping that many people will vote on the activities at this and nearby parks, since that information will let me setup a search to help people find activities that interest them, and lead people to discover new public parks.
