I made this trip in June 2018. Video shot with a Brinno TLC-200 Pro time-lapse camera mounted on my roof with a homemade magnetic case. I travel with two Brinno cameras - one facing forward, the other in reverse. Sometimes the reverse camera captures better video (fewer raindrops and bugs hit the rear-view lens).

Kings Canyon and Seqouia National Park - California, USA
Kings Canyon National Park is a national park in the southern Sierra Nevada, in Fresno and Tulare Counties, California in the United States. Originally established in 1890 as General Grant National Park, it was greatly expanded and renamed to Kings Canyon National Park on March 4, 1940. Its namesake, Kings Canyon, is a rugged glacier-carved valley more than a mile deep; the park also includes multiple 14,000-foot peaks, high mountain meadows, swift-flowing rivers, and some of the world's largest stands of giant sequoia trees. Kings Canyon is north of and contiguous with Sequoia National Park, and the two are jointly administered by the National Park Service as the Sequoia and Kings Canyon National Parks.
The majority of the 461,901-acre park, drained by the Middle and South Forks of the Kings River and many smaller streams, is designated wilderness. Tourist facilities are concentrated in two areas: Grant Grove, home to General Grant (the second largest tree in the world, measured by trunk volume) and Cedar Grove/Kanawyers, located in the heart of Kings Canyon. Overnight travel is required to access most of the park's backcountry, or high country, which for much of the year is covered in deep snow. The combined Pacific Crest Trail/John Muir Trail, a popular backpacking route, traverses the entire length of the park from north to south.
General Grant National Park was initially created to protect a small area of giant sequoias from logging. Although John Muir's visits brought public attention to the huge wilderness area to the east, it took more than fifty years for the rest of Kings Canyon to be designated a national park. Environmental groups, park visitors and many local politicians wanted to see the area preserved; however, development interests wanted to build hydroelectric dams in the canyon. Even after President Franklin D. Roosevelt expanded the park in 1940, the fight continued until 1965, when the Cedar Grove and Tehipite Valley dam sites were finally annexed into the park.
As visitation rose post-World War II, further debate took place over whether the park should be developed as a tourist resort, or retained as a more natural environment restricted to simpler recreation such as hiking and camping. Ultimately, the preservation lobby prevailed and today, the park has only limited services and lodgings despite its size. Due to this and the lack of road access to most of the park, Kings Canyon remains the least visited of the major Sierra parks, with just over 600,000 visitors in 2016 compared to 1.2 million visitors at Sequoia and over 5 million at Yosemite.
Seqouia National Park is famous for its giant sequoia trees, including the General Sherman tree, the largest tree on Earth. The General Sherman tree grows in the Giant Forest, which contains five out of the ten largest trees in the world. The Giant Forest is connected by the Generals Highway to Kings Canyon National Park's General Grant Grove, home to the General Grant tree among other giant sequoias. The park's giant sequoia forests are part of 202,430 acres of old-growth forests shared by Sequoia and Kings Canyon National Parks. Indeed, the parks preserve a landscape that still resembles the southern Sierra Nevada before Euro-American settlement.

Kings Canyon National Park Off-Roading: River Road 4K
The River Road is the official name given by the Park, however it is also known as the Motor Nature Trail.
This road can be done in just about any vehicle with decent ground clearance. This was done in my 2016 CR-V, so anything with similar ride height would be fine. There is only one section that is bad from the recent flooding that requires a slight line, but otherwise the trail is gravel and dirt.
The trail is one-way after the first quarter mile or so. It runs along the South Fork Kings River and has numerous spots to setup and picnic. Trailers are not allowed nor is camping.
This is one of the few off roading options in Kings Canyon National Park.

Exploring Kings Canyon National Park California | Snakes at Mist Falls (Road Trip)
On today's road trip we are heading to explore and hike the Kings Canyon National Park in Sequoia Forest, California. Last night we were camping just outside the national park so on the doorstep of the King's Canyon.
We start of the day by going to the second largest tree in Grant Woods before heading on to mist falls and hiking through the King's Canyon. The Mist falls trail lead to Mist Falls which is the main water fall at the end of the Scenic Byway road that runs through the Kings Canyon.
This hike turned out to be very eventful with encounters of snakes and slippery rocks.

Kings Canyon National Park - Deep canyon, big trees, high peaks
Our 255th (of 412) national park has a canyon deeper than the Grand Canyon and a beautiful raging river runs through it. The scenic drive alone is worth the visit but the icing on the cake are the Earth's largest trees, meadows, waterfalls, overlooks and trails.
