australfoto > A detail of bark on a redwood tree at the Muir Woods National Monument in Marin County, California, 12 miles (19 km) north of San Francisco. It protects 554 acres (2.24 km?) of forested area populated by Coast Redwood (Sequoia sempervirens), one of the last remaining stands in the immediate San Francisco Bay Area. The park is an old-growth coastal redwood forest. Due to its proximity to the Pacific Ocean, the forest is regularly shrouded in coastal fogs, contributing to a wet environment that encourages vigorous plant growth. The fog is also vital for the growth of the redwoods as they use moisture from the fog during the dry summer. Muir Woods is one of the major tourist attractions of the San Francisco Bay Area, with a visitation of 776,000 in 2005.(Australfoto/Douglas Engle)
