Exploring the Congress Trail

With this warm winter, we couldn’t resist heading to Sequoia National Park for a few short hikes. We started with the Congress Trail, a gentle 2.1-mile loop that winds through some of the most iconic sequoias. From there, we strolled over to the General Sherman Tree, one of the largest living organisms on Earth. We wrapped up the day exploring the Giant Forest, where we were lucky enough to spot a small family of deer. A perfect day in nature!Sequoia National Park
