Ancient Wisdom
It's always sort of an adventure to visit the oldest trees on the planet. They aren't exactly on the way to anywhere, and they certainly aren't in a particularly hospitable environment. This time we took a new route up Silver Canyon Rd, little did I know this would take us up 6-7,000 feet of vertical off-road before joining with the more reasonably graded main road. The transmission overheated multiple times and we had to pause to wait for things to cool off, missing sunset mostly, but catching twilight, and some late night Astro for thanksgiving. These trees seem to have ancient knowledge from the beginning of time. They make quite the statement stretching back as far as 4,500 years ago when they were born.
