Redwood National and State Parks span the Northern California coastline from Crescent City to Orick, California.  This area is home to some of the world's tallest trees: old-growth coast redwoods. They can live to be 2000 years old and grow to over 300 feet tall. Spruce, hemlock, Douglas-fir, berry bushes, and sword ferns create a multiple canopied understory that towers over all visitors. The parks' mosaic of habitats include prairie/oak woodlands, mighty rivers and streams, and 37 miles of pristine, breathtaking Pacific coastline. Cultural landscapes reflect American Indian history. The more recent logging history has led to much restoration of these parks.  Visit Redwood's website at:  www.nps.gov/redw
