Stout Grove of Redwoods

Stout Grove was dedicated in memory of one of the area’s lumber barons by his wife. A wonderful 1 mile walk through old growth redwoods 200-300 feet tall. The grove is located some distance outside of town along a river on an unimproved/unpaved road. The drive into the grove reminded me of former driving (in WVa) as both ends of the car seemed to steer all the time. With all the rain the road was really slippery. I am pretty sure the car in front of me was going to chicken out until the little Miata trudged past him and on through the slop. It would have been a shame to miss the trees for a little bit of slip’n an slid’n.
