This is one of the most gorgeous videos I've ever seen on youtube. The clarity, music and commentary set off what are truely remarkable living things. Trees that were here before 'Christ'. Stunning.
I've been to this particular forest in the late 1970's and I can say this, if you EVER get the chance to experience this, DO IT!. The memory is still very vivid in my mind. There is Absolutely nothing else like it. You will not regret it.
When I was a child, I had an opportunity to drive through with my Parents in the Tunnel Tree. It was such an awesome experience to think and see a Tree and you are driving right through it and the tree is still standing. But, I do know, just as I had to learn good table manners and good behavior skills, and good attitude, and good cooperation abilities and good conscience and consequence exercises, and good Listening levels. My Mommy and Daddy would tell me that just as this big giant Pine Tree grew from a little seed about 2 to 3 thousand years ago; and it survived Ice Storms, heavy snows, heavy rains, dry seasons and no one around to till and cultivate the land to keep the Tall Tree healthy. It Grew, and now stands as a Monument of Courage, and Fortress, and Determination, and Purpose and Honor and Purity and Forest Integrity and Strength. My question for us is; Can we be like this Tree, the Tunnel Tree. It's Time to Save America.

So the mistakes have to be corrected and that alone should keep every human being busy with a roof over their head and meals on the table, plus the good energy we will be promoting, all over this Living earth, To Heal all life what an honor it is to Love.
+Pat Kittle we have just begun to correct the mistakes of the past. This planet is Very special and LOVE is all it needs and LOVE is all humans need to share with all life. i am working for you and yours and their future generations in the name of Love. Be Kind.
The sizes of the trees that the Yosemite National Park boasts of are true evidences of the awesome works of God in creation. It boasts of the amazing beauty of nature. Life can never be boring in a world of so much vegetational wonders. I pray to visit this place someday.
These Sequoias are amazing, arent they? I've been at the Yosemite in 1994, during the Fall, and loved it. I wish I could go back there again. Thanks for sharing this series....the videos are awesome!
This vid may be more than a decade old, but that does not diminish its impact, in conveying in FRESH, High-Definition, High-Fidelity Qualities, of what it STILL MEANS, to be in these groves of WONDER. And, speaking of this vid, showing some "age", I would very much like to know if, [you,] Ranger Johnson, can STILL be found, at YNP? Speaking for myself--and I'm sure, for many, many others--it would put the "icing on the cake", to have you, be a real part of our visits, to YNP! LET US HOPE, that there shall NEVER, EVER be a tunnel carved, hewn through, ANY MORE Giant Sequoias, and that goes for the Coastal Redwoods, as well. Is their SIZE, color & texture, their aroma, SIMPLY NOT ENOUGH?! Here and there, there are also Jeffrey Pines, White Firs, Douglas Firs, and sporadic Red Firs, that can sometimes stand as "little giants", as well, next to Sequoias. Sierran Lodgepole Pines, being the largest Race of P. Contortas, may yet still be "puny", in a Sequoia grove, but they lend their charm to it all, too. The spring-to-early-summer basal gardens are wonders, too--Dogwoods & Azaleas--but, I'm not entirely sure, if I've actually seen Rhododendrons, amongst Sequoias.
nothing like placing your hands on something that is over thousands of yrs old. And alive!!!The Mariposa grove loop is one of the best hikes in Yosemite.The natrual colors are just beautifull. Too bad they didnt show the winter look of the grove.Take a snow shoe hike after a winter storm. Its like being in heaven.
Yeah right, earth was doing fine without our Gucci garbage and pathetic cars. History changes and need to let go.... hope someone burns it or cuts it down so we can place our feet on it and make a table to watch our tvs on. What? You do it already.
3:38"Right, break out the saws boys, we're going to cut a tunnel through this tree" "But.....what if we just went around it" "Arou...*around* it? what fantasy is this that you speak of? Do you think people can simply take a few steps to the left or right? No no, a tunnel is the *only* way"

I'm speechless - no words to describe the awesome beauty of these trees! Thank you for the incredible video!
I lived in CA and have stood next to these trees and nothing is close to comparison. Thank God they were saved to show how little humans are.
What a wonderful series. Thanks so much.

i got to go through it also in a car, then the last time i seen it, we could no longer drive through it but walk through it.

"America's Best Idea" truly is the National Park System, a magnificent inspiration for the world.
If only we'd left it at that.

@@blahblahjumpswing1504 The cadence of "dumb guy who thinks he's in the Matrix" is so recognizable and so funny
actually the ocean provides the most oxygen so it would be fine if trees went extinct

incrediblee
How tall are those sequoias
200 feet ?
😇❤️🇺🇸🙏🦌🐻❤️😇
time to smoke some trees!
does anyone know how many trees are in tuolumne grove
Think how many trees we could save by legalizing hemp? Have any of you thought about that one? Or even know what hemp is?????
Amazing?
The first park ranger has the whitest sounding voice lol did not think he was black o.O
That's what you got out of this video. Holy cow, humans are definitely the worst thing that happened to this planet...
