A description of these trees, with every encyclopedic reference, does not do them justice.

Until you have stood among them, you cannot know.

The big ones are over 2,000 years old.

They are amazing. I find the Giant Sequoia trees even more impressive. Funny that “Sequoia Park Garden” in in this story has only Coastal Redwoods (Sequoia sempervirens), and not Giant Sequoias (Sequoiadendron giganteum). People are already confused enough about these two very different trees.

Some were old when Christ was born.

Been to Redwood National once. It was magnificent!
