SAHC Does the Redwoods: A Trip Worth Waiting For John Ohm
Twenty intrepid SAHC members trekked up to Northern California in September for a week of lovely hiking in the Redwood National and State Parks. It was a trip well worth waiting for, as forest fires forced the cancellation of this trip in 2023 and our hikers were rewarded this year with great weather and outstanding trails. Come listen to John recount the adventure and enjoy the array of dramatic photos that he's put together to share. Hikers traversed deep fern-covered Redwood forests, reveled in expansive ocean views, and thrilled to wave-pounding beach walks along the Pacific Ocean. Trailheads spanned some 40 miles from Crescent City near the Oregon border to the north down along Prairie Creek near Orick, California to the south. Stick around after John's presentation to toast the 66th birthday of the Southern Arizona Hiking Club, reportedly one of the oldest and largest continuously operating hiking clubs in the nation. Holiday desserts will be served, per tradition, courtesy of special projects coordinator Denise Martinez.
