Grove of the Partiarchs Trail - Mt. Rainier

Chris & Laura by the river.
The Nielson kids & Struempler kids on the trail. (Samantha, Jakob, Audrey, Daniel, Zoe & Zach)
Jakob sitting inside the trunk of an uprooted "giant" tree. It's incredible to see how big they are.
We are standing by 1,000 year old trees! Amazing! They have survived so long, because this grove is surrounded by rivers on all sides keeping them protected from fires.

WOOOOOWWWW! Love the picture of Jakob in the center! Those trees must have been the disease-resistant variety. Where can I get some for my yard?
