These Monterey Cypress trees have been a part of Carmel Beach for so long, I hope the city plants Monterey Cypress trees in their locations. I have noticed some young Monterey Cypress trees in the vicinity, but the Dunes area and all along Scenic Rd. sure could use the planting of many more young Cypress trees. There are not enough young and midlife trees, there are too many old and dying Monterey Cypress trees along the Beach.
