Lemon Cove California

You would think a place called something "Cove" would be on a lake. Nope. We drove probably 30 miles through many square miles of citrus. I was blown away. All those trees had to be watered and we were driving through a desert. I'm not sure where the water came from but there had to be a lot of it. We are here to visit Sequoia and Kings Canyon National Parks. This park is located in the foothills of the Sierras. In order to get to where the big trees are the road climbs 4000 feet in 25 miles. We'll do that tomorrow. The plan is to spend 2 days exploring Sequoia and 2 days in Kings Canyon. This is the farthest away from home we are going to get. When we're done here we"ll head East.

  1. Amazing, trees must have extremely long tap roots
    To get water. Sounds like four days of hikes. Happy trails
