I am taking the family on a trip to see the redwood forests of Northern California this spring. It appears that Humbolt, Prairie Creek and Jedediah Smith Redwoods State Parks as well as Redwoods NP are the "can't miss" sites we'll be visiting. I will be limited on how much of my camping gear I can bring. (Need to know if I can hang in California)
1) Redwood NP specifies no hammocks. Is hammock camping allowed in the State parks?
2) Will the ground be too wet or the bugs, snakes or critters be too much to allow me to use just my tarps? (lighter and smaller than my backpacking tents)
3) Flying into and out of San Francisco, any hikes or sites I should include on my itinerary?
Thanks
