There are spots inside Big Basin Redwoods state park that appear to be frozen in time. “If you love Big Basin, please consider this: rebuilding Big Basin can pioneer a new model for California’s state parks, just as Big Basin accomplished more than a century ago.”Before rebuilding begins, though, there’s a considerable amount left to be cleared. A large redwood tree, which fell decades ago, was a favorite stop in the old-growth grove in Big Basin. “There’s some of that loss of the big trees that make it such a special forest. But we have opened up places for the next generation of big trees to grow,” she adds.
