The Magnificent Redwood Trees of California
I recently put together a photo book from my trip to the Redwood National Park and the Trees of Mystery attraction in Klamath, California. These trees are absolutely breathtaking and worth making the trip out to see!
The Trees of Mystery attraction is often called a “tourist trap,” however, I had a great time and highly recommend the attraction! It was worth the small admission fee, in my opinion! They have a gondola ride that takes you up through the redwood trees. At the top, there is an observation deck featuring fabulous views of the trees and surrounding scenery. Along the trail, you get to read a lot of cool history about the redwoods. I also love the End of the Trail Museum, which has articles and “evidence” of area sightings of Bigfoot.
