Deer Creek Grove is a small giant sequoia grove located in the Deer Creek watershed of the Giant Sequoia National Monument in the western Sierra Nevada of California, near the end of a steep 0.8 mi (1.3 km) trail south from the end of Deer Creek Mill Road. It is the southernmost giant sequoia grove, about halfway up a pine-covered mountain that rises above a valley of grassy foothills and containing a scattering of old-growth giant sequoias on a sheltered east-facing slope.[1]
While the present day distribution of this species is limited to a small area of California, it was once much more widely distributed in prehistoric times, and was a reasonably common species in North American and Eurasian coniferous forests until its range was greatly reduced by the last ice age.[2]
Over half the grove burned in the Windy Fire in 2021.[3]
