Cedar Grove to Grant Grove, Kings Canyon, California
Just what we need to get the ball rolling: the best downhill of the trip (and that's saying a heck of a lot). The road is smooth, straight, not too steep, there's no one about and its not 35 degrees. We're retracing our route from yesterday but it's amazing how your perspective changes when you're sitting up relaxed to enjoy it all as opposed to hot and bothered and wishing for it to be over. It was nice to really appreciate the canyon. At it's lowest point, and in accordance with our new take-it-easy-for-a-few-days approach, we hitchhike to avoid the 3,000ft climb back up.
Once up, we spend the arvo taking in Grant Grove, a grove of Giant Sequoia's, a serene, fantastical place, which really brings out the childish wonder and imagination in us; these trees are HUGE. We spend hours here, straining our necks looking straight up most of the time.
