@savetheredwoods   We visited Muir Woods with the awesome @keon21nature_east_bay ! Keon is a super fan of the East Bay Regional Parks, including Reinhardt Redwood Park. He crossed the bridge to experience the magic of this old-growth grove for the first time. Spoiler alert: he knows a lot about redwoods and the plants of the redwood ecosystem. Thanks for the fun times, Keon! 📍Coast Miwok and Graton Rancheria lands
