My wife and I wanted to get away from the "corporate" Christmas thing and decided to head up to Sequoia National Park for Christmas. This was the first long road trip for the the 80 and she did me proud. We arrived Christmas eve to the 1930's cabin we rented in the mist of a major snow fall. The new PIAA lights did well and i was impressed as always to the 80's manners in the snow! We drove down to Hume Lake and had fun there and spend a few days snowshoeing in and around the Sequoia groves. It is AMAZING how tall they are. Winter is a great time of year up there as there was really no one up there and every trail we were on had 12+ inches of virgin powder with no one else around! Anyhow, i thought i would post up a few photos for the group.

Nice! We got some cross country skiing in over Christmas, but not nearly so scenic. Thanks for sharing the pics
