Everytime I travel to Klamath, or further North I always take the old Hwy and stop for a bathroom break at the Big Tree, takes me back when I was a kid. Since I was about 11years old say 1973 i've gone there and other than the plants around there and a tree or two that has fallen it's stayed the same.

You would be amazed that these 1500-2000 years living things had been here waiting for you to visit, magical...
