Winter in the Redwoods
February 23, 2008
Winter in the Redwoods; winter up here in the redwood forest, to be frank, is quite wet, and today was no exception. We started our day out here with the water spout turned on full steam. Yet, by early afternoon, the sun was out and showing some of the pretties blue sky a person will ever see.
Rain is one of the many elements that keep our redwood forests looking the way they do; which by the way, happens to be, green! Up here in Orick, California the average yearly rainfall can average anywhere between 75 to 100 inches of rain. Our beautiful old growth redwoods love that precipitation and literally soak it up!
So, now that you know what the weathers like, today, it’s team redwood out for the day.
Be sure to check back later, as I’ll be keeping you up to date.
