About 35 miles south of the Oregon border was a park named Trees of Mystery. Trees in this park are reported to be more than 2000 years old and the park contains the ancient redwoods, wood sculptures and other flora. A Tram takes you up above the trees and stops: it is a silent and beautiful view of the ancient trees.

| Moss and ferns grew on everything: tree limbs, tree trunks and fence posts. |
 |
| The decaying tree trunks displayed a surprising palette of color. |
 |
| I have no idea what these are (they resemble columbine) but the pinks were so striking. |
 |
| Sometimes a tree falls in the forest-and the others catch it! |
 |
| The fence post puts the tree trunk's size into perspective. |
 |
| The cathedral trees |
 |
| very different bark on these tree varieties |
 |
| The tree grows horizontally and becomes the root for the others. |
 |
| One tree, lots of variation. |
