TRAIL OF 100 GIANTS: To climb amongst the rubble left marks of black charcoal on my bright flesh. I found places to sit, but I could not rest in this place going through a time of great healing and rebirth. It will take many years for it to recover.
Fire helps giant sequoias in many ways. Small, green cones full of seeds awaiting germination grow near the crown of the trees, yet without fire or insects to crack open the cone, the seeds remain trapped inside. Green cones can live with viable seeds inside them for up to twenty years. Fire dries out the cones, enabling them to crack open and deposit their seeds on the forest floor. http://www.150.parks.ca.gov/?page_id=27588
