When the U.S. government protected Yosemite forever, it did so because of Yosemite Valley and because of the incredible giant sequoias nearby. The emblem of the National Park Service includes a sequoia. Thereās good reason for this reverence and respect: The Grizzly Giant and its fellow sequoias are nothing short of inspiring.
