My little grandson has watched this video at least 50 times and we’re watching it again right now! Thank you for making it.
Glad he enjoys it! Sounds like a special little guy! C🐻
I live about 4 miles from here. It’s truly the most amazing place In the world to live
Good for you Scorpio...much to explore!
Where exactly is this place?
May the forest be with you! I first encountered the Giants (Redwood and Sequoia) last year, and can't get enough.
Amazing place!
This is a very well done video, Chris. I live in Calaveras, and I do tree work for a living, but I am appalled at what our predecessors did to the old growth forests. Big Trees is a planet wide treasure and one of my favorite places to go. Cheers, dude.
Thank you California Carpenter, fortunately there were some people back then who stood up to protect these giants! They are amazing...I appreciate the tree that work you do!
You live in Calaveras? Me too. I'm in arnold, are you somewhere like angels camp??
@@EternalWithin Nah, I’m in the Mountain Ranch area.
Love California love big threes and we hate Texas heat
im seeing this video 4 years later, but i love it! great editing and great scenery.
Thanks a lot! Great park!
Awesome, Awesome, Awesome. I can't wait to go visit those parks. They're so beautiful and serene.
Thank you for sharing, and thank you for another awesome video.
🤗 HUGS 🤗
Grew up fifteen miles away, great place to hang out
Lucky you...great park!
Were you in murphys?
I never heard of this state park and had to look up where it was located. Definitely going to have to pay that park a visit one day. Thanks for showing it to us.
California has many great state parks...this is one of their best! I'll be going back sometime this year. Thanks for watching!
For Sure best park in the area. I live about an hour from the park and visit it at least 3 times a year and never get tired of it . every season gives the park a different look and feel.
Love Big Trees Park. One of my favorite family hikes!!
Really beautiful area. I've never been here. It has now been added to my list. Great video and I enjoy all of the info you provide. Adding in the old photos from the area was a great touch. Thanks for sharing.
Thank you Catherine! You will enjoy it...The south grove has even more Sequoia trees ( up to 1000 ) I will be making a trip back myself! California has many great state parks.!!
I visited here last year (2019) during March snow period! Loved it. Only had a day visit and I hope to revisit someday🌲🌲
You should! Great park...winter would be cool ( literally ) yes worth a few days to explore! Thanks for watching.
I love going to the Calaveras Big Trees! Thanks for taking us along!
Your very welcome....such a fun park. I need to go back! Thanks for watching and subscribing! :)
I actually live the town arnold, 4 miles before it!!
@@EternalWithin I work at Bear in the winter. I go back and forth from Twain Harte to the Bear area!
Looks amazing!
It is a wonderful park! I'll be going back and camping there again!! Thanks for watching!
Wow..I went there when i was so young and before i didnt really care much about it but now...I would do so much to go see it again :)
Worth a trip...I'd check their website and confirm their availability and any restrictions.
Amazing footage's!
Thank you! Awesome place..
Wow. Nice little doc here, Chris ! I was in the Muir Woods in 1976. It was Amazing. My first look at the Big boys.
Thanks for watching! It's a great park! I was sorry to hear of the "Tunnel" Tree going down.
Yes. I heard about it this morning. Maybe a new one will grow in it's place. Should be nice in 1000 years.
Nice video and great facts about the trees! I definitely need to visit this place. That deer did not mind at all being in your video 😁
You'll love it...plus it's in Cali. The south grove is even more remote and wild ( almost 1000 Sequoia trees ) Thanks for watching!!~
I live in Sacramento and my wife and I are taking a motorcycle ride to big tree in a couple weeks. Looking forward to the great ride to big tree and looking forward to touring the park.
Good for you...it's a wonderful park!
Man you video editing skills are kickin in! Nice job!
Thanks Mike! I really enjoy the process.
Nice video, Chris
Thanks Poppy...I just subscribed! "Keep Hiking!"
Thanks chris
That is an awesome place! Welcome!
thats some big trees
Super Big Trees! Fun place.
This vid was well shot and edited, I can tell you took your time putting it together, respect. check your camera lens it may have not been perfectly clean was a haze in the backlit shots. Im going to be in Sonora next month and your vid makes me want to visit this place.
Thank you! Yes I did 2 days of filming to get my shots/ then edit. It's a great park...well worth a visit! (I'll watch my lens for finger prints, good catch )"Keep Hiking!"
I believe the tree that you could drive through fell down the January after you walked through it.
Yes...I remember reading about it. A wind storm took it out. Pretty amazed I saw it just about a month before it went down. Kinda sad! Thanks for watching! :)
It’s the Pioneer Cabin Tree. It’s gone!
Yeah, it is sad, I live in Arnold, just before big trees. I remember the day after I heard that it fell
Mashallah Mashallah God bles you Brother
love from Kosova Albania 🇦🇱🇽🇰🇺🇸
What river was in the video and where? Was it near the nort grove?
I believe that was the North Fork of the Mokelumne River...it's on my route over the Sierra to Big Tree...it's east of big tree..thanks for watching.
@@basecampchris the same one you pass while crossing the bridge on the way to beaver creek?
Me and my family go here every year around the same time for a week, the bad thing the 7 hour drive there
Good for you! Great state park!
I feel ridiculous that I’ve never been to big tree before because I live only 112 miles away from the park. We are going to go there in two weeks. Any suggestions on what to look for and some interesting things to be sure and do?
Nice Video Chris!! I enjoyed watching it! We just made a video about Calaveras Big Trees too. If you have some free time give it a look and tell me what you think of it!
Hi Higher Ground, yes, i'll take a look at it...it's a great park!
I was there in 1991.
Awesome...great little park.
I'm there right now! Not in the park, just a little town called arnold, 4 miles down the hill from jt
I can't believe that they used to cut those awesome trees down. What a shame. Something so beautiful takes thousands of years to develop and grow, then they cut them down in a matter of hours. Terrible.
I love that the state parks in CA don't allow hunting, so your wildlife has nothing to fear (and neither do hikers). I wish NJ would do the same, but hunters menace almost every single state park here, along with many county parks, municipalities public spaces and wildlife management areas. There are no virtually no safe places for hikers who seek distance trails to hike in safety here. Astonishingly, less than 2% of NJ residents hold hunting licenses, yet the 98% who don't have to take their lives in their hands if they want to go hiking. Those 2% of hunters stake their claim on the parks with the myth that they alone pay for conservation, which is absolute bunk. Thank goodness hunting is a dying "sport".
