A beautiful travel from Grant's Pass OR to Crescent City along Hwy 199, took us among the Giants...the redwoods. Their amazing girth and height
can only be believed when seen. This highway took us through the Redwood National and State Park, the Smith River Recreational area, the agricultural inspection at the CA border and at times around narrow curves between redwood trees, as the bottom picture shows. In fact, one redwood was notched so that high vehicles would not hit. I love the yellow markers at the foot of the tree, warning to not get too close. This is one road I would not want to travel in fog! There are many areas warning of rockslides also. It was a tense ride at times, but fortunately we did not meet anything on the tight curves.
