I lived up in the California Redwoods for 8 years and spent most of my off time hiking up the various trails in the National and State parks in Northern California. This DVD doesn't begin to do justice to this beautiful area. For one thing it looks like this was filmed in the late winter; the worst time to appreciate this area. Also, they omitted the most beautiful spots. This is a place where mountains covered with massive trees come right up to the ocean. Where you can stand on cliffs almost 1000 feet high and look down on the Blue Pacific. Where crystal clear wild rivers that scare the heck out of all but the most courageous whitewater kayakers tear past these majestic giants. If I had the equipment I'd go up there and make a much better DVD than they did. I say start over and hire some local folks in Del Norte and Humbolt Counties to show you where to film.
