We want to get a little hike in before starting the long drive home, so we stop at the Big Trees Trailhead, which is on our way. This is much more of a front country type of hike, a circuit around a very pretty little meadow surrounded by large sequoias and other pines. I notice some very fresh bear sign here within a few minutes of walking, including some unmistakeable muddy paw prints on the boardwalk. Just as we are completing the circuit we see a very light brown caramel colored bear tearing up a log, looking for grubs. We stop to observe for a while, but he doesn’t pay the slightest attention to us.
Finally, it’s time to say goodbye to Sequoia and King’s Canyon National Parks. We take the long winding road down the mountain and head back home to the Grand Canyon.
