Dedicated to exploring as much of California as I can, this channel chronicles all of the best hikes, drives, waterfalls, national parks and food in the state (just to name a few).

Hiking Big Basin State Park in 2024
Journey with us through the towering redwoods and lush landscapes of Big Basin State Park, California's first state park. We weave through the ancient, majestic redwood forests and see what the park is like after the devastating fire in 2020. While many of the trails are still closed, we were able to hike the Redwood Loop and the Meteor Trail in this video. Hopefully, this video encourages you to revisit the park. Let me know what your favorite trail is in the comments.
