I like the Sequoias. i've seen them in yosemite at the mariposa grove. I remember driving to see them and being amazed at how big all the trees were then driving along...BAM...there one was. I had thought that all the trees around were GS. Then you see one towering over a forest of 100 foot tall trees... wow. here's a pic that begs the age old queation...if a really big tree falls in the forest...
