yesterday i went to big basin redwoods state park, in california's santa cruz mountains. there was a huge fire here in 2020, and the park only reopened a year ago
the forest is healing though. the color scheme of the hike was black trees, abundant green regrowth, and blue sky. it's humbling to see the redwoods' power to endure. i felt privileged to be in the still, silent forest in its state of recovery
