As a "Son of the Golden State" I can confirm Chuck's comment. The 
Sequoiadendron giganteum (Giant Sequoia) in the Sierra Nevada mountains 
along the California/Nevada border are huge compared to California's 
Coastal Redwoods, but both are impressive. Interestingly, it takes a 
forest floor fire to enable the redwood seeds to germinate. It took a 
while to figure that out, so now a sustainable redwood policy includes 
controlled forest floor burns. Some of the trees are over 2000 years old.
