The thinner bark implies it may be coast redwood, not Sequoiadendron And coast redwood is the widest and tallest species in the USA. Both species get as large or larger than the photo in the first post. Still hard to imagine working with trunks that big even with equipment of our time.

The bride wanted to walk around some big redwood trees after their wedding in the same Prairie Creek park.

Last spring we donated a portrait session and print canvas at a fund-raising dinner for a youth group. Here's the photo the winning bid family picked for a 24 inch x 36 inch print canvas.

Photo from a few years ago before a metal boardwalk was built through here. Some of the boardwalk was needed, but they sort of went overkill spots, and even worked on wet soil under the trees in winter.

Finally back to the redwoods, first time since last November. Didn't realize I had cataracts, and got the eye surgery and stuff squared-away this winter. Here's 2 images merged, taken through a vintage Contax Zeiss 28mm. Many of this year's photos will be done with potential for wall size prints or murals as well as small print or display.

The guy in this scene, from Germany, is chomping at the bit to return. Last year's plans were choked by the virus chaos.

More fun in the rain.

The rainy season, like winter, is my favorite in the redwoods

Revisiting a favorite redwood found a few years ago. Fog and rain were forecast for today, so I drove to the coast for some hiking and mild bushwhacking.

I've met the cloning clan and am familiar with their stuff. But the reality of redwoods is that growers could get bigger and taller trees from seed. The largest existing are not superior, merely just old and big.

Sequoiadendron 212 ft. / 64.6 m - Oregon, outside indigenous range
mdvaden replied to mdvaden's topic in Video forum
The video of the OP probably hints at the age. About 100 years. Maybe 95 years if planted about when the old historic house was built in the 1920s. -
Sequoiadendron 212 ft. / 64.6 m - Oregon, outside indigenous range

2020 UPDATE Remeasured after the growing season. Now 213.08 feet. One foot - a fair gain for one of the lowest rainfall years in quite some time.
