For those who desire to make the day trip only, the National Park
Service maintains public camps or picnic grounds at Beetle Rock. A
ranger is on duty at all times and is anxious to show the park and make
the stay of visitors as enjoyable and profitable as possible.
The operating company issues a leaflet advising people of
accommodations, prices, etc. This can be obtained on application to the
superintendent.
It is always advisable when driving in the mountains during the winter
to carry tire chains, although even in midwinter it is often possible to
drive to the Big Trees without them.
Every effort is made by park authorities to keep the Big Trees
accessible during the winter months. Sequoia Park is now well known as
one of the few places in California where winter vacationists from other
sections of the country may be sure of seeing the giant Sequoias.
