That's a good way to describe it.

 

Here's a more recent photo a few miles south along the Eel River by Felton Grove near Miranda

Message Mario (mdvaden). He was full of information and help when I was trying to organise my trip through the Redwoods. My advise; head up the coast and base yourself near the parks and forests rather than travelling up from San Francisco for a day. Also, give yourself time so you don't rush. We had three days around the forests and it still wasn't enough.

With regards to costs; depends on what you mean but there's a plentiful supply of hotels and camp grounds from what I remember.

We got an internal flight to Crescent city, hired a car from the airport (shed) then took a leisurely drive down to SanFran over 4/5 days, dropping off the car there. Stayed at motels that we found on route.

A day trip from SF might get you to the avenue of giants, which is a good area, but there are more awesome trees North of that.

A retired redwood guide once wrote that my site's redwood pages were "by far and away the best redwood" resource. You ever check my signature link?

 

If I don't write about something, I link to the best sites. But I have one page that addresses your question partly. There are well over a hundred pages in the menu.

 

The page I had in mind was not in the menu, but I just added it a moment ago. Go to > Essentials > Travel > Travel Cost

Not sure what it costs to fly over over the ocean. But once that's done, its fairly inexpensive to experience a one week trip if someone doesn't need to live like royalty.
