Redwood Grove
The Redwood Grove of Henry Cowell Redwoods State Park, which is located in Santa Cruz County in Northern California, is a grove of Coast Redwoods with member trees extending into the 1400- to 1800-year-old range. This grove is notable because it allows for the use of self-guided tours of the flat, loop trail which is easily accessible (within of a vehicle parking lot). Dozens of large, old Redwood trees are located within a few feet of the walking trail.
==Natural history==
Coast Redwoods, (''Sequoia sempervirens''), are a native tree in the deep valleys and low to middle elevations (up to 750 m) of the Santa Cruz Mountains. Their growth and longevity is enhanced by the proximity to the ocean with its massive amounts of precipitation, the cool air which encourages fog, and the dimmer sunlight near the moisture-rich trunk-base region. Free-flowing, year-round stream help to enhance this environment and the cool moisture-laden air often produces visible fog, which helps to replenish the trees. The bark of these giants is heavily-laden with tannin which helps to offer protection from damage by either fires or insects.
This grove has some of the tallest and oldest trees in the Henry Cowell Redwoods State Park, because the environment has been preserved to maintain a natural ecology. Undergrowth is never cleared, there is no logging allowed and deadfalls and lightning-struck trees are allowed to proceed naturally with their processes, unless they impair access to the grove. This rich, biotic environment is filled with natural nutrients which make up for the massive amounts of waterfall which might otherwise deplete the soil. Old growth groves such as this will show the birth (shoots and burls) and death (rotting trees and "fairy rings") of ancient redwoods, many of whose birth was before the Battle of Hastings in 1066.
Of course, all the native flora and fauna which have existed in these mountains for centuries are allowed to remain—even to the extent of the highly-irritating poison oak plants.
