Laura Tremblay reviewed Dipsea Trail. September 19, Redwoods grow best in moderate temperatures and need significant moisture to thrive.

Part of the reason why redwoods thrive along the California coast is due to year round fog. This perennial fog condenses on the leaves and needles of the trees, drips to the ground and provides redwoods with annual moisture, even during the dry season. Redwoods are best known for their thick, spongy red bark. The bark itself can be from from 6 to 12 inches thick and insulates mature redwoods against fire damage. Redwoods get their color and name from the reddish-brown, bitter chemical tannin.

Tannin makes the bark and wood resistant to fire and attack by fungi and insects. Daytime temperatures at Muir Woods average between 40 and 70 degrees Farenheit. Be prepared for rain if visiting the park between November and April. Remain on established trails. Poison oak and stinging nettles are common and are a painful reminder to stay on designated paths.
