Tul, do you think I gave in too easily? Or does that mean something else?

Where is the famous Wawona Tunnel Tree ("drive-through tree")?
The most famous tunnel ("drive-through") tree is the Wawona Tunnel Tree in the Mariposa Grove. It fell during the heavy snow winter of 1968-69 because it was weakened by the huge hole cut in the living tree and the extensive road paving over its fragile roots.
Also in the Mariposa Grove is the California Tunnel Tree, a still-standing walk-through tree near the Grizzly Giant. The hole was originally cut for horses and carriages to pass through. The California Tunnel Tree is located 0.75 mile from the parking lot.
There is also the stump of a large tunnel tree in the Tuolumne Grove. This tree was already dead when the tunnel was cut through it. The grove is not open to vehicles. It is one mile from the trail head.
