Missed Your Sequoia National Park Passport Stamp?

Missing a Sequoia National Park Cancellation? You Are Not Alone.

Sequoia National Park Passport Cancellation Stamps

Sequoia National Park has passport cancellation stamps at the Foothills Visitor Center near the Ash Mountain entrance and at the Giant Forest Museum near the General Sherman Tree. The Lodgepole Visitor Center (seasonal) and the Mineral King Ranger Station also carry stamps — the Mineral King stamp is one of the most remote secret national park cancellation stamps, requiring a 25-mile winding mountain road to reach.

A missed national park stamp from Sequoia is common because the drive from the entrance to the Giant Forest takes nearly an hour on a steep, winding road, and many visitors rush past the Foothills Visitor Center at the bottom eager to reach the giant sequoias. If you went directly to General Sherman or Moro Rock, you may have passed the museum without stopping. The park is administered jointly with Kings Canyon, adding to the confusion about stamp locations.

About Sequoia

State: California · Established: 1890 · Size: 404,064 acres · Iconic landmark: General Sherman Tree

Sequoia is home to the largest trees on Earth, the giant sequoias, whose massive trunks and immense scale defy belief. The crown jewel is the General Sherman Tree, the largest living thing on the planet by volume, rising 275 feet with a base wider than a city street. These ancient giants, some more than 3,000 years old, cluster in groves along the western slope of the Sierra Nevada, sharing the park with towering granite peaks, deep canyons, and roaring rivers. The park also contains Mount Whitney, the highest summit in the contiguous United States. Visitors can wander the Giant Forest among the great trees, climb the granite dome of Moro Rock for sweeping views, and explore marble caverns below ground. Managed with adjacent Kings Canyon, Sequoia is a monument to nature at its grandest.

The largest living tree on Earth by volume, found in the Giant Forest. A short paved trail leads to its base, though it is downhill on the way back up.

How is Sequoia related to Kings Canyon?
