Klamath, California - the redwoods - Sky Trail

Nickie was skeptical of this place because it looks like such a tourist trap, complete with a 49-foot statue of Paul Bunyan and blue ox out front. A little encouragement and the promise of a ride in the sky car through the heights of the forest convinced her to stick it out.

We were not sorry!

The Sky Trail takes you up to 136 feet high. At first we were coasting silently through the branches, then the land dropped off below and we found ourselves coming through the forest canopy and looking down at the tops of these lovely trees. We were awestruck!

Nickie had always wanted to see what it looked like when you look down on the tops of the trees. She said she will never forget the ride we took through the redwoods.
