Coast Douglas-Fir (Pseudotsuga menziesii var. menziesii)Observer
greenluc503Description
Massive 240' ft+ Douglas fir with a dead top. it is not the largest douglas fir in this stand. one of the only old growth sites in Columbia County. old growth was logged right up to the ridgeline where it sits. unstable and muddy hillsides. logging this patch of old growth would be a mistake if it happens.

casa_de_chaosDescription
I was exiting the freeway and saw these three clowns pecking at the signpost on the side of the road.
This is right next to a part of the canyon with a growing number of Acorn Woodpeckers. They have also spread to the end of Rose Canyon just west of Genesee.

Lawson's Cypress (Chamaecyparis lawsoniana)Observer
eralversonDescription
A number of Port Orford cedars have been planted in the Harbor Vista Campground, perhaps as part of "reforestation" following the 1962 Columbus Day storm. This site, and Lane County in general, is well north of the northern natural limit of the species' distribution, as I understand it.
None of the trees are obvious natural regeneration so I am calling this observation "cultivated". One tree in the campground has reddish-brown foliage and appears to be dying, so it may be that Phytophthora lateralis has now arrived.
