Muir Woods National Monument is a park located in Mill Valley, CA, 12 miles north of San Francisco. It is famous for its Coast Redwood (Sequoia sempervirens) trees. This forest of trees is one of the few forests of this type of tree still standing in the San Francisco Bay Area.

If you have been to Muir Woods National Monument, you would know parking is always a pain there. I had to walk pretty far from where I parked to get to the park. This photo was shot in Mount Tamalpais State Park, a park bordering Muir Woods National Monument.
