Planning a Sequoia National Park trip? Here’s why the giant sequoias belong on your bucket list—and where to see them up close. 🌲 Don’t miss (save this list): • Giant Forest (Congress Trail) — cathedral-quiet loop among ancient giants • General Sherman Tree — largest tree on Earth by volume • Big Trees Trail — easy, boardwalk loop around a meadow (perfect golden hour) • Crescent Meadow / Tharp’s Log — “gem of the Sierra,” calm and photogenic • Parker Group (seen here) — quick add-on next to Tun
