Sequoias and the Wind

From John Muir's, A Wind-Storm in the Forests: "There is always something deeply exciting, not only in the sounds of winds in the woods, which exert more or less influence over every mind, but in their varied waterlike flow as manifested by the movements of the trees, especially those of the conifers. By no other trees are they rendered so extensively and impressively visible, not even by the lordly tropic palms or tree-ferns responsive to the gentlest breeze. The waving of a forest of Sequoias is indescribably impressive and sublime..." As a child, I lived fifty-miles from Sequoia National Park and would often go there for a picnic with my family or just a leisure drive. I really looked forward to walking in the woods or watching the trees dance in the wind.
