Tharp's Log in Sequoia National Park, CA, is a historic site that showcases a hollowed giant sequoia log used as a shelter by early pioneers. Named after Hale D. Tharp, the first Non-Native American to enter the Giant Forest, the log dates back to 1861 and is a unique piece of architectural history.
Visitors can explore the log, which features a fireplace, door, and window, offering a glimpse into the past when Tharp established a small summer cattle ranch in the Giant Forest area. John Muir once described Tharp's Log as a "noble den," adding to its allure as a must-see attraction in the park.
