There I am, absolutely dwarfed by a behemoth Red Cedar that is ancient, gnarly, majestic, and beautiful. To stand next to a lifeform of this magnitude and importance, is to feel true awe and humility. Photo by brother, Curt. #photography #bigrees #oldgrowthforest #vancouverisland #avatargrove #scale

Stairway to (old growth) heaven at Avatar Grove, Vancouver Island. To prevent visitors from treading upon the ancient forest floor, and to assist with traction on steep slippery inclines. This view is from the upper grove. #photography #oldgrowthforest #vancouverisland #bigtrees #canada

Two lifeforms. One is about a thousand years older than the other, who doesn't mind being used for scale because he's my brother. Curt and "Canada's Gnarliest Tree", at Avatar Grove on Vancouver Island. #photography #gianttrees #trees #oldgrowthforest #vancouverisland #canada

Horrifying. If Oregonian or US Citzen, please comment.

I am an infinitesimal but admiring tourist, briefly trespassing through the centuries of your towering greatness.

The way I see it, old growth forest has a right to be as unruly and tangled as Nature sees fit. This is Vancouver Island and I love it so. #photography #blueskyphotography #oldgrowthforest #intheforest #inthewoods #trees #vancouverisland #britishcolumbia #canada

Why was 'incredible' giant cedar cut down, despite B.C.'s big-tree protection law? | CBC News Conservationists are questioning why an old-growth yellow cedar tree with a diameter that should have ensured its protection and a buffer area around it under provincial law was logged.

Why was 'incredible' giant cedar cut down, despite B.C.'s big-tree protection law?

Yellow cedar's diameter measured 2.79 metres — a size that should have ensured protection, buffer around it #bcpoli #oldgrowthforest #environment #logging

A sign that reads, old growth forest network this mature forest is here for all generations to appreciate please treat it gently. With a large tree logo.

I went hiking at a nature preserve just ten minutes from my home. And found this brand new sign. I'm so happy for them. It's a local land preservation group that manages the preserve. #oldgrowthforest #hiking

Three incredible old growth forests around Cleveland. Impossible to justice to the size and presence of these magnificent beings. Photos just don’t work, but they are spectacular, healing, encouraging. Holding space for hundreds of years… #oldgrowthforest #oldgrowth #hugetrees

Front view of Northern tooth fungus with a hand in front to show scale. This particular fungus was at least a foot wide and high and shows the whitish-yellow overlapping, fan-shaped caps on a living tree

Northern tooth fungus (Climacodon septentrionalis) found in an old-growth forest--it got our attention!

A giant, ancient, upside-down-looking-octopus-shaped Sitka spruce tree in the costal fog of Cape Meares, Oregon. The grass surrounding the tree is green, it’s foggy, and there are many other trees in the background. The fence surrounding the tree appears on the right and left of the photo, as I respectfully took this picture from outside the fence.

For #ThickTrunkTuesday, I bring you the Octopus Tree, an ancient Sitka spruce with no central trunk - just all these arms. Also, a comment below. #OctopusTree #PNW #OldGrowthForest #Forests #Fog #Nature #Photography #Hiking #GoOutside #Breathe #Notice
