We made it back to Muir Woods today. The oldest Redwood at this park is 1200 years old, and the average life span is between 400 and 800 years old. It was incredible. However, they won't tell you where the biggest and the oldest tree is located because they are afraid of vandalism. How sad is that! We hiked up a trail to an elevation of 1000 feet. It was the Ocean View Trail. What they forgot to tell us before we started this 2 hour hike was that you no longer can see the ocean because of tree coverage. It was raining at the top, but it was still spectacular. It does feel like we are just specs on this planet standing in this redwood forest. Even though it was a reflective place, Kurt and I managed to have some fun.
