Evening Trees * The rich foilage of towering redwoods, bathed in the tranquil sunshine of a summer evening * 1183 x 1752 * (3.1MB)

Fish Jump * Look very closely and you can see evidence of a fish jump in the river * 590 x 858 * (661KB)

Avenue of Giants * Here is Avenue of the Giants, on an October morning in 1999, after a night of rain. Note the mist along the trees. In the non-rainy season (from May to September), redwoods receive the lion's share of their moisture through mists and fogs that plague the Northcoast all summer. * 868 x 588 * (372KB)

Railroad Bridge * Railroad bridge over the Eel River. The railroad has not been used in over ten years. * 1207 x 844 * (777KB)

Bull Creek * Bull Creek, a tributary of the Eel River, placidly weeves its course among some of the lushest old growth redwoods on the Northcoast * 1728 x 1200 * (2.65MB)

Green Reflections * Reflections in the still waters of the Eel on a warm summer afternoon * 1732 x 1188 * (3.15MB)

Comment: Trails wind their way among massive trees. These trees may not look terrribly large in terms of their circumference, but they tower well over 150, sometimes 200 feet.
