@ingalls I think about that too. Glad our forebears created national parks like Olympic to save at least some of the giant forests that once covered the PNW.

Here I stand, a tiny human, at the root wad of maybe the biggest drift log I've seen, a gargantuan Sitka spruce. It's been lodged in the sand of First Beach at La Push for several years. The beast undoubtedly came down on high flows one of the rivers of the Olympic rain forests. My sweetie took the pic. #ThickTrunkTuesday #AltText
