Leggett CA Gateway to Avenue of the Giants
The "Drive-Thru" Tree
Our Campground in Leggett
A Cluster of Redwoods in our Campground
Date: Wednesday, June 23th
Day: 40
RV Miles: 4,015
Location: Leggett, CA
Elevation: 175 ft
This was an interesting but pretty much a do nothing day as we headed up the coast. We stopped here in Leggett since it is the beginning of the “Avenue of the Giants,” a 30-mile stretch of nothing but Ancient and Protected Redwood Groves. As a matter of fact, the campground we are staying in tonight is in a redwood forest. It is very shady, cool and quiet. Leggett is also home of one of the many drive-thru redwood trees. It seems that almost every town around here is trying to lure in the tourists and has some kind of redwood tree exhibit. Drive-thru, one-log cabin house etc.
Tomorrow we will continue up the coast via the Avenue of the Giants.
