    Absolutely gorgeous corner of the planet. I hiked the Emerald Bay ring trail. It was semi moderate to medium grade difficulty. I totally worth the hike, just to drive up there with something to be seen.

    An incredible example of the majesty of redwoods and the need to preserve old growth.

    Reading the history about the rings and each year of tree rings is amazing, the size of the saw was also attached to give you a reference of how huge the tree was… it’s amazing how this was propped up & secured when you walk around to the back of the display. A few years ago at Ave of the Giants we had 27 people holding hands surrounding a huge Sequoia… absolutely amazing this spectacular tree is still being logged….. this is not in a museum but located on the grounds of an old hotel which is currently closed, there is no parking so if you go around the grounds to the back you have to walk to the site. Parking on street side is 10-15 mins only.

    HIDDEN GEM!
    This tree section is bigger than any one tree we saw along the entire coast line. Worth the 5 minutes to park and walk to it.

    We parked around back at the museum (the historic house) and walked to it.

    It’s amazing to think a tree had once been alive for so long. The time line puts things in perspective. It’s a cool sight to see. A must do while in Fort Bragg.
