Sequoia National Forest

Sequoia National Forest is a national forest surrounding Sequoia National Park in the Sierra Nevada region of California. The forest contains many groves of giant sequoias, the largest living things in the world, along with many other gems. Sequoia NF is divided into two sections, a northern and a southern, with Sequoia National Park in between. Much of the forest was, in 2000, made into the new Giant Sequoia National Monument.
