They discovered a new giant at 102 meters tall in Tasmania. These trees used to get as tall as 110-130 m before logging days (dozens of measured specimens testify to this). Also the Douglas fir used to have the tallest trees in the North America, with trees reaching 110-127 m in British Columbia and WA state-- even reported as tall as 140 m in some valleys in Wash. (Black Hills, near Bordeaux ring any bells loggers?) The Red Cedars were also logged from the valleys of the North West coast for shingles. These trees got 50-90 m tall and 2 - 9 m in diameter at breast height. Yeah those Eucalyptus trees are really tall and freaky looking. They discovered a new giant at 102 meters tall in Tasmania.

But I like the Sitka spruce coastal forests equally well. MDV Oregon Lately, I’ve been in the coast redwoods the most.
