Two dangerous and deceptively-named anti-Wilderness logging bills, the “Save Our Sequoias Act” (SOSA) and the “Fix Our Forests Act” (FOFA), have been attached to the must-pass National Defense Authorization Act, or Senate Bill 4784.

If A Tree Falls...
A short ways off the trail near the Founders Grove in Humboldt Redwoods State Park, I came across this very large fallen California Redwood (Sequoia sempervirens), covered in moss and ferns and slowly returning to the Earth.
Considering it was a good 16 foot at the base and likely about 200+ foot long, it begged the question. If no one was around to hear it, did it still make a noise? 🤔

#ThickTrunkTuesday A small group of relatively young giant sequoias (sequoiadendron giganteum), #NationalTrust Nymans, West Sussex. These are amongst a healthy population of sequoias growing at this location, some of which are over a century old and reach a height of some 40 metres. Sequoias are a long term project in any arboretum and will need several centuries more before they get anywhere near full-grown. #Trees #Plants #Sequoias

Sometime around the end of the last ice age
—around 20,000 years ago
—a single aspen seed rooted, sprouted, and began cloning itself
in what is now central Utah.
Known as #Pando, which comes from the Latin “I spread,”
🔸the world’s largest known organism continues to grow today,
🔹comprising more than 40,000 individual trees.
🔸Every trunk emerged as a shoot from the same root system,
🔹and scientists estimate Pando weighs about 13 million pounds.For photographer Mitch Epstein, the phenomenal resilience, scale, and lengthy lifespans of trees form the basis of his ongoing series #Old #Growth.
From the world’s most voluminous #sequoias to the most ancient weathered and gnarled #bristlecone #pines
—which can live more than 4,000 years
—he captures remarkable stalwarts around the U.S.

I'm super excited to learn that these two trees on my property are possibly Giant Sequoias! I had been trying to identify them for a while until someone on Reddit helped me out. If so, they're just babies and could be here for 100 generations (no joke!). Thank you to the previous homeowner who planted these decades ago!
