Kings Canyon National Park: Zumwalt Meadow
|
Zumwalt Meadow along the banks of the Kings River is one of the most pleasant places in the park. The bank of the river forms the north edge of the meadow and mountains, such as the Grand Sentinel (shown below) form the south boundary. Deer may often be seen browsing for food in the meadow.
Additional views of the floor of the meadow are shown below. Here, the tall grasses and wildflowers which cover part of the meadow are visible.
Another portion of the meadow with trees and the canyon walls in the background is shown below.
Along the south edge of the meadow the nature trail passes through a rocky area covered with bolders, shown here.
Access to the meadow trail is gained by crossing a wooden suspension bridge.
Below is a photograph of the Kings River with the meadow and the north wall of the canyon in the background. The nature trail leads around the periphery of the meadow.
