Once covered with more than 50 old cars, rusting machinery, and other debris, the land near Big Basin is now cleaned up.
Sitting on the eastern edge of Big Basin Redwoods State park along Highway 236 in the Santa Cruz Mountains, the property should have been a gateway to one of California’s most storied, scenic and popular redwood parks.
“It was amazing,” said Santa Cruz County Supervisor Bruce McPherson. “This guy was the King Tut of hoarders.” The group, which has preserved redwood forests in the Santa Cruz Mountains since 1900, is in discussions with state parks officials about transferring the property to expand Big Basin. With gray pony tail, bushy beard and flannel shirts, Kaylor for years has looked like a Santa Cruz Mountain man right out of central casting.Kaylor graduated from Stanford University with a bachelor’s degree in electrical engineering in 1961 and a master’s degree in physical science in 1964, university officials confirmed.
His penchant for taking things apart and endlessly fiddling with circuits and transistors and batteries eventually got him in trouble. Although he owned a house in Menlo Park, Kaylor bought the redwood property in 1984.
