Imagine deliberately trying to drive through a tree? Every year thousands of tourists attempt just that!
In the heart of Northern California at a lovely quiet town called Klamath, hundreds are magnetised to the challenge of driving their some expensive and others less so, deliberately through a giant redwood carved out at the base. Generally, testosterone in the males and some "egging on" from family members for the lady drivers results in a "whew, that was close" But judging from close examination of the inside of the tree, a few don't quite make it. There are traces of white, silver, red and all car paint colours to be found on the inside of the base of this tree. I am pretty sure the paint scrapings are painted over REGULARLY.
Klamath Tree
Sixty minutes north of Eureka, the newest of the drive-thru redwoods sits atop a hill near Redwood National Park and Yurok tribal lands along the Klamath River. Craftsmen carved the opening to the in 1976 carefully avoided critical areas of living wood, safeguarding the health of the tree.
The grounds have a restroom made from a redwood, gift shop, and picnic table. For the less adventurous, or perhaps sensible, hundreds, me included, watch others join the drive-thru club.
Exit off US Highway 101 just north of the Klamath River bridge. If entrance booth closed, honor system is in place for payment. 430 CA Route 169, Klamath, Calif. 707-482-5971.
