Deer Creek Grove

While not a grove containing any of the largest champion trees Deer Creek was formerly a fine example of a small sequoia grove.  It was the victim of the 2021 Windy Fire and the sequoias in its environs reportedly took approximately a 50% mortality in the big trees.   The devastation is incredible and having seen it a year after the fire i would agree with the assessment i've heard of a loss of 50% of the sequoia trees.  It is at least that high by my estimation.

Below are some pics of the worst burned areas and a couple shots of its Tunnel Tree which did not fare well.
