This guide helps answer some of the most popular questions about the big trees such as how they grow, why they live so long, why their size is tremendous, and how they die. How do the giant sequoias grow? Why do they live so long and grow to such tremendous size? What caused the black scars and the snag tops? How do they die? What are the important trees and groves that I should see? These are the first questions concerning the giant sequoias usually asked by Visitors to Sequoia and Kings Canyon National Parks, and these first questions are the chief concern of this booklet.
