Berry Glen Trail - Redwood National Park
A rain free December Saturday in northwest California demands that you get outside and hike...and that's what I did, heading north from Eureka to Redwood National Park. I picked the Berry Glen Trail, which ascends 1200 feet in 3 miles from the Elk Meadow Day Use Area to the Lady Bird Johnson Grove (see map here). Big trees abound throughout the hike, and there is an interesting plaque at the Lady Bird Johnson portion, where President Richard Nixon dedicated the grove to the former First Lady in 1969 (see image here). All in all a good hike with a bit of elevation gain and some history for kicks.
