Hello everyone. My time at Cal Poly Humboldt is coming close to an end and I will be moving inland for work. I’m thinking of hiking and admiring the most impressive OG redwood stands as a send off from this place.

I’ve grown up and hiked around the Bay Area most of my life, so I was familiar with large and old 2nd growth redwood. I think it is because of this that I never got the “awe inspiring” feeling people that come up to Humboldt get, though I am desperately seeking to feel this.

I’ve visited several along Avenue of the Giants but something about them fell short, I couldn’t tell what it was. 101 headed to Crescent City was a lot better, felt more representative of a functional OG forest. I’ve done the very basic trails in Redwood NP (Trillium Falls, Prairie Creek, Skunk Cabbage), and the non reservation portions of Headwaters Forest Reserve.

Willing to drive anywhere in Humboldt or Del Norte county. Thank you!

Hello all. Going to be moving to the area by the end of this year. I’ve been spoiled by living near the coast most of my life with endless hiking, fishing, hunting, and similar opportunities. I’m completely unfamiliar with the San Joaquin Valley so figured I’d ask on here if there are any outdoorsmen that can let me know how the opportunities are here.

Not asking for honey holes or to burn your spot, just a general layout of what is available nearby is much appreciated

Hello everyone. Was going to move from Humboldt to Shasta County for work, but apparently my employer might want to send me out to Visalia. Really bummed because I’m already so familiar with the NorCal Coast and Sac valley. I’ll be honest I am completely unfamiliar with the area. Figured I’d ask here to see how the area is in terms of hunting and outdoors activities.
