Mariposa Grove

By the southern entrance of Yosemite National Park is the Mariposa Grove of giant seqoia trees. They are huge! We went on the tram ride and i'm glad we did or we would have missed out on so much, even though it meant we didn't get to spend a whole lot of time at each area. This tree they call the clothes pin tree. They say that opening is wide enough for a truck to go through. The trees are just beautiful to see and very inspiring. I'm so glad we got to go.

While everyone was looking the other way We saw this deer by one of the giant trees. I love being apart of nature.
This is the famous California Tunnel tree. At one point of time it was part of the road and they let cars drive through it. Now you can only walk through it. It was such an awesome sight.
