Calaveras Big Trees - August 24, 2013

Smoke has been filling the skies from two big fires burning in the state.  We knew we were taking a risk heading down 49 to Big Trees but went for it.  We hit the smoke pretty quick and turned west for awhile and explored New Hogan Lake.  We decided to head back east and see if the smoke had cleared at all and it had!  We stopped in the fun little town of Murphys for some great food and some retail therapy.  Seeing how much the skies had cleared we headed on down the road to the Big Trees.  I am so glad we did. We had a great afternoon hiking and exploring the park.  These trees are amazing with lots of interesting stories to tell.
