Lush - Charred

view map

Took a drive to Big Basin Redwoods State Park to view the damage from the 2020 CZU Lightning Complex fires.

This area is on the Pacific Ocean side of the Santa Clara Valley.

Very sad to see the charred landscape, which burned the historic visitor center to the ground.
As well as many neighborhoods in the mountains.

The park is currently closed and will take a long time to recover.

Google Maps is up to date to show the browned landscape from the fires.

What a comparison. The sight of some new leaves on the right is encouraging.

let's hope it rains a little more often to see these forests green again! V

Ours is still scarred from the 2019 /20 fires....hard to look at :(

it does look depleted and scarred, and California's drought conditions won't be good for quick regeneration...well done to juxtapose the changes..
