Redwood National and State Parks are home to old-growth coast redwoods
which are some of the world's tallest trees. They can live to be
2000 years old and grow to over 300 feet tall. Spruce, hemlock,
Douglas-fir, berry bushes, and sword ferns create a multiple canopied
under story that towers over all visitors. The parks' mosaic of habitats
include prairie/oak woodlands, mighty rivers and streams, and 37 miles of
pristine Pacific coastline. Cultural landscapes reflect American Indian
history. The more recent logging history has led to much restoration of
these parks. |
