ghostsofevolution's video: CTL 9G - Coast Redwoods at Chetco River Oregon - 2019 site visit

September 29, 2019 Connie Barlow video-documented her site visit to the northern-most wild (unlogged) grove of Coast Redwoods in America. While it lacks the immense tree sizes for which Redwood National Park (at various sites in northern California) is justifiably famous, this site in southwestern Oregon offers great hope for those of us weary of climate bad news. For it is here where one finds site evidence of this tallest tree species in the world still producing lots of offspring, which then head for the canopy themselves. This is the 7th episode in the Redwood / Giant Sequoia branch of Connie Barlow's "Climate, Trees, and Legacy" video series posted on youtube. Access the webpage with links and summaries of all episodes here: http://thegreatstory.org/climate-trees-legacy.html October 2021 Barlow collaborated with the Seattle-based "1000 Redwoods Project" in producing a photo-rich webpage to help Pacific NW planters of donated Coast Redwoods find the best habitats and microsites: "Finding Good Redwood Habitat in Coastal Pacific Northwest" at https://thegreatstory.org/redw/redwood-habitat.html Also in 2021 Barlow collaborated on a new wikipedia page rich in background and linked sources: "Assisted Migration of Forests in North America" at https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Assisted_migration_of_forests_in_North_America Access annotated list of the full "Climate, Trees, and Legacy" video series by Connie Barlow, in which she advocates for assisted migration poleward of native trees in the USA, region by region: http://thegreatstory.org/climate-trees-legacy.html UPDATE 2022: Canadian forestry research Richard Winder is lead author of a 39-page report titled, "Potential for Assisted Migration of Coast Redwood (Sequoia sempervirens) to Vancouver Island: Problems and Prospects". I excerpted the most important parts on another webpage, including the map of Vancouver Island, British Columbia, where the team identifies the best coastal areas for moisture, fog, but protected against stormy salt spray: http://www.torreyaguardians.org/assisted-migration.html -2022
