Kings Canyon & Sequoia National Parks
Day 1 of Road trip . We started early (at 6AM) from our home in Fremont. The weather for Kings Canyon was showing as partially cloudy. Along the way, we hit a dense fog which continued for several miles (I thought this is how its gonna be in the park) but it disappeared quite quickly. We had breakfast at McDonald's on the way and reached Kings Canyon Park around 10:30AM. We directly went to the Grant Grove village visitor center and picked up the park guide/map. After that, we were on to our first point which was to General Grant Tree . After parking the car, we took the 0.3m long trail going through amazing Sequoias. Have you walked through a tree? You can do it on this trail. We Walked through this huge tree which must have fallen long back. After spending about 45 mins on this trail, we took highway towards King Canyon Lodge to experience the park from different view points. The road after Kings Canyon Lodge was closed during winter season. Here is view from Junction...
