What do you do when a giant sequoia tree falls across a hiking trail? You carve a tunnel through it, apparently. This is much like the famous "tunnel log," also in Sequoia National Park, carved out of a tree that fell across a roadway. But instead of being carved to allow a full-size vehicle through, this tunnel is just big enough for hikers.

In this part of the NP there are numerous such tunnels, some so large that you can drive through them with a car.
