Pioneer Cabin Tree fell over

[Jkzinger]

Definitely a bummer. I do believe there is more than one tree that you can drive through. I remember seeing signs at multiple locations the last time I drove down hwy 1

This one was a walk through tree in the State park.

That stinks. Looks like an awesome site to see in person.

No, but according to the stories I read it wasn't doing all that great and with all of the rain & wind it just keeled over.
Surprising that it's lasted this long with so much of it cut away....

I think it was cut out in the late 1800s, I need to read the story, I better get my arse out west before I miss all the cool stuff

Heard about that this morning it sucks. With all the rain that we got and are still getting I'm sure more of them will go.

I watched a documentary on these trees a couple years ago and have been even more facinated with them than I was before I saw it. Amazing how each tree is basically it's own ecosystem.

I got to see that tree about 10 years ago...I was amazed at the time that it was still standing with that much taken out of it. Too bad it fell...my kids won't remember seeing it and now they can't see it again.


'07 JKUR ... mod'ing never stops...

It's sad to see cool road side stops like that go. This storm has been a bad one for sure.

That's a bummer for sure! Was hoping to get to that this spring.

Oh man, that totally sucks. :grayno:

Eddie, didn't you get to drive Moby (or was it Rubicat) through some sequoia trees awhile back? I tried searching for the pictures, but couldn't find them.

Not sure if these are still open, but there are others out there - http://redwoods.info/showrecord.asp?id=2464

So sad to see this! I have always wanted to drive under this tree

Just another reason to stop delaying and get out there and explore. Still lots of interesting things to see in our great country.

That is a shame.

We tried to see these a few years ago but didn't get to the right area. It was a target of opportunity and we didn't have good directions when we decided on it while on the road.
