The future belongs to those who understand that doing more with less is compassionate, progressive, and enduring, and thus more intelligent, even competitive.

Almanac

Kings Canyon National Park, established March 4, 1940, is adjacent to and immediately north of Sequoia National Park. The two parks are managed as a single unit and together contain one of the largest roadless areas in the lower 48 states.

Indeed, Kings Canyon has only one short road, open only in the summer months. Most of the park is designated wilderness area, accessible only via a network of trails.
