You've got to hand it to the people who own this tree- they charged us $6.00 (self serve) to drive through the tree, when we got down there, we did not have a hope of fitting through, but what the heck, it was worth the laugh! More

So, there are a few drive-through trees around here and this is probably the worst. It's held up by cables since it's utterly dead and they charge per car to drive through it.

My husband and I drove from Los Angeles to Washington State and decided to take the more scenic route. We detoured off the 101 to the Avenue of the Giants to see all the beautiful Redwoods up-close. We stopped by Shrine’s Drive-Thru Tree knowing that it was a tourist trap. We paid $4 (for the our car) to get into... More
