Berry Creek Falls
Berry Creek Falls, as seen from
a few hundred feet away.
Next to the platform that allows
visitors to view Berry Creek Falls is a giant redwood as shown above.
The bottom inside of the tree has been hollowed out by fires as you can
see in the picture on the right. The hollow space is so large that
we could walk in and climb downwards among the roots of the tree to one
of two openings.
The two pictures above were taken
INSIDE the redwood tree. On the left, Jenny leans against the burls
of the tree, partially charcoaled. On the right, Katie and Roger
kneel on the roots of the tree. I'm taking the picture from deep
within the base of the root cavity.
Roger emerging from inside the tree
cavity, through one of the openings mentioned above.
Katie and Jenny marveling at the
majestic waterfall, which is about 60' tall.
Roger, Katie, and Jenny.
Careful with the slippery rocks!
