Trip report: boondocking in Sequoia National Forest

Toobold, if you are in the Central Valley, you are in camping heaven -- there are cool, green, quiet places within easy reach all the way from the Giant Sequoia Monument above Porterville to the forests north of Tahoe. Living in coastal Orange County, it takes us almost three hours just to get to Bakersfield (depending on traffic), so you have a big head start!
