Jan, I don’t see why you couldn’t manage both those things in one trip!

Jan, I see big trees in the woods nearly every time I go deer hunting, many in areas where the keyboard warriors like to claim they're all gone.  Just goes to show they don't actually get out there and look for themselves!

And has been said, I don't see why you couldn't get out and see whatever you're looking for.

Calaveras Big Trees park.... They're pretty awesome but quite a drive from Fresno. Keep us in the loop, I'd love to see ya! I'm in the Tracy/East Bay Area, depending on the day

Need to squeeze in some wheelin' time while you're out here.... 

We won’t have nothin’ to wheel except a rental SUV!  Hahaha.  Come pick us up and take us! 

FFC we’d love to see you too!  Pretty well have all the plans finalized and reservations made.  So for sure Anaheim to San Diego to Fresno, and will definitely idly be in Sequoia National Park on Brian’s 40th birthday

Really nothing in Fresno, but, from there you can get Sequoia and Yosemite easily enough. Take a trip through Yosemite and take 395(?) to Mammoth and check out some of the geologic sites there, like fault cracks and the "Devil's post pile". There's several caverns along that range as well, north of Fresno. Big trees, big rocks and big holes in the ground can keep you busy for weeks. Do a little WEB surfing and pick-n-choose. My wife and I did a three day trip that took us to two caverns, Tahoe, Yosemite and Mammoth. Lots of miles! Even more things to see and do.
