The western trailhead of the High Sierra Trail begins in Sequoia National Park at Crescent Meadow. Crescent Meadow is known as the “Gem of the Sierra” and is a truly amazing spot to begin the High Sierra Trail. Before starting the trek, hikers must pick up their wilderness permits at the Lodgepole Visitor Center, located about 10 miles from Crescent Meadow. Permits must be reserved in advance through Recreation.gov, with a limited number of walk-up permits available at 1:00 PM the day before departure. All permits must be collected in person by 10:00 AM on the day of departure and must be carried on your person as you hike.

There are numerous tunnel logs in this NP. You can even drive through one of them with your car.

Was along our hike through Sequoia NP. Nicely done and informative

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

For me, one of the most beautiful hikes I have ever done. These gigantic trees are so graceful and beautiful, it smells wonderful - simply fantastic.

This museum is meant to be the start of any visit to this forest of giants. It showcases the natural history of the area (and of the building itself), and also serves as the trailhead for self-guided walks through the trees.

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.

Hikers first glimpse the massive General Sherman Tree from this spot on the General Sherman Tree Trail. Just around the bend, you can reach the base of the tree, but even from this spot, you can marvel at its immense size and grandeur.
