If only you UK'ers could access the 44 minute National Geographic video on Youtube about climbing the giant redwoods.

 

Maybe in time.

Very good video. Hugely depressing regarding the Eastern Hemlock - does anyone on here have first hand experience seeing them?

Do you mean seeing the eastern hemlock trees?

 

We have the western hemlock in Oregon, and those are faring rather well. I haven't driven through eastern hemlock. Both are nice looking trees.
