Redwoods. The clear area at the base is what happens with redwood litter -- it's highly acidic, so nothing but another redwood can grow there; a major tree dies off and a ring of smaller trees grows around the area it used to stand.

This may be the "Commie Shed." When they bought the property, one of its features was a shed used during the 1950's to conduct surveillance on a communist cell nearby. They used it for garden implement storage.
