@Gargron was this recent? I visited Big Basin before the fire a couple years ago and the only pictures I’ve seen since then have been of devastation.
@mgerdts About two weeks ago. There's definitely a lot of devastation, but the center of the park looks a bit better.
@Gargron @mgerdts The fires a few years ago wiped out the park infrastructure and extensive stands of younger trees where most of the old growth had been logged over the last 150 years or so. But the big old trees were, like, “What? There’s no problem here.” it’s impressive to see now.

@mgerdts @Gargron My friend Eric created a short film, “Big Basin Will Never Be The Same”, that shows the effect of the CZU Lightning Complex fires on his favorite running trail through the park. The before-and-after view of his run is mind-blowing. #SantaCruz

@Gargron Ah, my old stomping ground, my family used to go up there pretty often when I was a kid in the 70's, grew up in Santa Cruz.
