Nature really is remarkable. A wander through Cathedral Grove is awe-inspiring. An ancient forest that has withstood not only the test of time, but also devastating fires. It has also survived logging, thankfully.
Cathedral Grove houses the oldest and largest Douglas Fir trees in North America. They are over 80 ft tall and easily 16-18 inches across. They have survived for a 1000 years. Truly remarkable.
Incredible root system
Nurse trees are trees that have fallen and as they begin to decay, provide important nutrients that spark new life and they become breeding/feeding grounds for new trees. The fallen trees act as both incubators and nurseries for the new trees
