The Pioneer Cabin Tree | Additional Description:
This tree is Stop No. 21 on the Calaveras North Grove Trail:
As the roads to Yosemite improved, Yosemite Valley and its nearby Sequoia groves began to attract more and more visitors. Because of this competition, when the Wawona Tunnel Tree in Yosemite was carved out in the 1880's, the owners of the North Grove responded by doing the same to this tree.
