Jack,
Thanks for sending those pics. In 1985, I was lucky to have seen them before they blew down. I may have some photos. They do look young, and I wonder how high they would be now if given the chance.

These were done with a transit (in January 1978) so they should be pretty accurate but because it took so long for each, I only have a few measurements. There may have been taller ones but I am usually pretty good at picking out the tallest. I include images from scanned slides. One is a view along the road (where the measuring is easy) showing 150-160 footers . The other is the base of the 172 footer near the center of the stand. White Pine: ? cir. 172.6' high 9'-4" cir. 165.5' high 9'-11" cir. 160.2' high 8'-4" cir. 148' high Hemlock: 8'-10" cir. 123' high Jack _____ From: Edward Frank <[email protected]> To: [email protected] Sent: Sat, December 19, 2009 1:40:36 PM Subject: Re: [ENTS] Cathedral Pines Jack, I am wondering if you have your records of the trees you measured in the Cathedral Pines with your transit before the blow-down? If so I would really like to see a listing of the old measurements. Do you have, or does anyone else on the list have any photos of the site prior to the wind damage?
