Genl. Grant National Park, California. The World's Largest Tree.

From Redwood National Park
in the north to Joshua Tree in the south, California’s parks are as varied and
diverse as the population of the Golden State itself. The oldest, Yosemite, was
established in 1890; the youngest, Pinnacles, graduated from monument to park
just three years ago, on January 10, 2013. Each California park has its own
kind of beauty and all are a reflection of the society into which they were
born—a reflection of us. With this offering in the “Mirror of Us” series, the
California Historical Society celebrates Sequoia & Kings Canyon National Parks.
