But many of the 40 groves of giant sequoias elsewhere in the parks have not had such treatment and could be at risk if the fire continues to spread. Two other prominent giant sequoia groves in Sequoia and the adjacent Kings Canyon National Park - Grant Grove and Redwood Mountain Grove - also have had extensive thinning, she said. “Even though we have done all of this prescribed fire and feel like the fire behavior when it gets in there - if it gets in there - will be fairly moderate, we just really want to do everything we can to protect these 2,000- and 3,000-year-old trees,” Brigham said. Since the 1970s, parks crews have conducted thinning and prescribed burns in the famous grove to reduce brush and remove smaller trees such as firs and incense cedars, increasing the chances that wildfire would stay closer to the ground and not burn intensely enough to kill the big trees.
