Summary

Plate on boulder in Bolling Memorial Redwood Grove, Humboldt County, California, c. 1921. In August 1921, the Save the Redwoods League, led by dozens of eminent scientists and conservationists, dedicated a magnificent stand of Sequoia sempervirens and named the grove in honor of World War I hero Col. Raynal C. Bolling (1877-1918). The plaque commemorates Bollinǵs service. The grove is now part of the Humboldt Redwoods State Park.
