Sequoia and Kings Canyon National Park Lodgepole Campground

Sequoia trees the size of your freaking house. I’ve had apartment widths smaller than the circumference of these trees. AND this is the only spot that they grow. It feels like you’ve jumped through a portal onto another dreamy, green, forestry, planet. The campground is also rad. All of the amenities are there. Good luck not puking on the drive up with all of its hairpin turns. Oh, and the likelihood of seeing a bear is very high. Please prepare for that beforehand so you know the proper ways to handle that.
