Expert Profile: MaryJo Mellado Willey

Expertise:  I take my children camping in Sequoia often. I have favorite places to visit, and some easy hikes to take. There is also a small lake close by where one can fish, swim, or rent a small boat.
I've camped in both Lodgepole and Dorst campgrounds. There are plusses to both of them.

What do you like about this subject?  Sequoia is truly a beautiful spot. It is about 5.5 hours from Los Angeles, so we go there once a year. Also, it is not as crowded as Yosemite Nat'l Park.
Something interesting about this subject that others may not know:  The largest living thing in the world is in Sequoia. It is called the General Sherman Tree.
