Sequia was my personal favorit among all the national parks that we visited. The park is pretty big, but one of its most fascinatng features is the difference between height levels. Lower parts appeared to me to be like a very dense and sometimes almost tropical forest, the higher parts are occupied by the famous and enormous Sequia Trees andabove these there steep rock formations. Lower park levels were warm while the higher parts were still totally snow covered.

A view from the river (next to our campground, really great camp site in the middle of a forest) to the mountain tops:

We went snow hiking (awesome) and found some huge Sequias that are not that popular as there is no street nearby. Unfortunaetly we sometimes lost the track as everything was snow covered.

Some trees just went the wrong way:

Being carefully observed:

Also, always keep your food stored. Bears really do like snacks. Here is an example what might happen if you drop your chocolate into a sewer:
