Greetings,
I’d like to share one update and ask you a question.
Update:
For the past 7 months, I’ve been busy creating a brand-new online course on old-growth forest ecology. During this time, I’ve been visiting different old-growth forests and documenting their trees, ecological indicators, geological influences, relationships, and stories.
It’s coming together nicely, but I’d like to ask you for your help.
Question:
If you’re familiar with old-growth forests in western North America, can you offer any recommendations on places to visit?
Up until this point, I’ve been documenting eastern North American old-growth forests. In September of this year, I’ll be spending a few weeks in northern California and Oregon. I may also consider visiting the state of Washington.
If you’ve visited any old-growth forests in western North America, I’d appreciate your recommendations! Do you have any favorites? Are there any “must-see” forests? Can you point me in the direction of notable trees? Is there any other advice you can share? I’ve done quite a bit of research on my own, but I would still love to hear your thoughts.
You can simply reply to this email to reach me.
Thank you for your help! I really appreciate it.
