I went here with my family as a young girl in the late 60’s, and while I don’t remember a lot about the trees, I remember Paul Bunyan and Babe the blue ox. We have pictures with my dad, my sister and I, and is a great memory. Recently we were traveling in our RV, staying in nearby Crescent City and had the opportunity to visit the park again. My husband and I had a great time, enjoyed learning about the amazing trees, and best of all, in a world where dogs are banned nearly everywhere, dogs on leashes (of course) were welcomed. They were allowed not only on the trails, but also the sky tram, and even in the store. I would highly recommend stopping by for a great visit here.

We stumbled across this backwoods road that had GEMS OF HISTORY! FIRSTLY, the Historic Bridge with Original Concrete BEARS that are on the bridge. The history of the Redqood trees that washed out that bridge. It was November and SUPER FOGGY, so no ocean views for our trip. But....we then found a trail to The WWII DECOY FARM buildings! Wow! Radar detection,Artillery, just Stunning! Worth the wonderful drive for the history!

We were staying in Klamath and were able to do the drive thru tree 1st thing in the morning when there were very few cars. No one was in the ticket house but you are on the honor system to deposit $5. To us it was worth the stop because of its uniqueness. Do honk the horn when the sign says because the road is tight. Drive thru with your car while having someone take your pic, it's fun and takes a very short amount of time.

This is on Coastal Drive, a one-way road that becomes gravel for a short time. The road is known to have scenic ocean views, but when we drove along it, the High Bluffs Overlook was closed due to the coronavirus. Well, given the fog we wouldn’t have seen much ocean anyway. The Radar Station is marked by a small display on the left side of the road, with a couple of spots for cars. Park and walk down about a quarter mile to see the WW II radar station disguised as a farmhouse and barn. There’s no entry into the buildings, but if you walk behind them, you can see some of the wooden planks that used to cover the cinder block to make the buildings look more like farm structures; these have mostly rotted away by now.

These original 1926 Klamath Bridge Bears in Cement are fabulous . The sometimes ONEWAY GRAVEL ROAD, above the river and Pacific Ocean,was such a treat. Though SUPER fogged out and no visible signs of Ocean, aside from the crashing waves and Seaguls crying, to be had.
