Redwood Trees Start Recovery From Fire' data-article-id='5617'><script src='//news-app-staging.herokuapp.com/javascripts/getscripts.js'></script><link rel='stylesheet'

after fires heavily damaged California’s oldest protected natural area.</span> <span data-start-time='12250' data-end-time='21771'>Eight months ago lightning storms started more than 650 fires in Northern California. </span> <span data-start-time='21771' data-end-time='28063'>Today, Big Basin Redwoods State Park is still closed. </span> <span data-start-time='28063' data-end-time='36958'>But during a guided visit recently, life was reappearing on blackened redwood trees. </span> <span data-start-time='36958' data-end-time='42354'>Small flowers stood out on the burned land.</span> <span data-start-time='42354' data-end-time='52000'>“I think nature is finding a way,” State Parks environmental scientist Joanne Kerbavaz said.</span> <span data-start-time='52000' data-end-time='61667'>The 7,284-hectare park usually has about 1 million visitors a year. </span> <span data-start-time='61667' data-end-time='68229'>But last year, many parts of the park burned for 24 hours. </span> <span data-start-time='68229' data-end-time='79750'>More than 100 structures were destroyed, including the historic park headquarters, shelters, picnic tables and more. </span> <span data-start-time='79750' data-end-time='82396'>Many bridges are gone too. </span> <span data-start-time='82396' data-end-time='93167'>In some places, root balls are still smoking, leaving dangerous underground areas, Kerbavaz said.</span> <span data-start-time='93167' data-end-time='103458'>Since last August, damage experts have been trying to identify materials and waste that need to be removed. </span> <span data-start-time='103458' data-end-time='111208'>In many ways, the park does not look much different than it did soon after the fire.</span> <span data-start-time='111208' data-end-time='119750'>An Associated Press reporter and photographer walked on the Redwood Trail a week after the fire. </span> <span data-start-time='119750' data-end-time='125854'>They confirmed that most of the ancient redwoods had survived. </span> <span data-start-time='125854' data-end-time='133667'>The trees are about 2,000 years old and among the tallest living things on Earth.</span> <span data-start-time='133667' data-end-time='139063'>The next eight to 10 months will be spent cleaning up the park. </span> </p></div><div class='control-buttons-sticky' style='display:none;'><div
