So, just to be sure I'm getting this.
Steve Sillett and company are allowed to climb Sequoias and Redwoods, and even drag journalists up into them.
But the rest of us "grunts" should stay the hell out of them.
Does that about sum it up?
But the type of climate that favoured those huge monocultures of big trees may not be.
That is one thing I've been wondering about, since it came up in a discussion with the father of one of my karate students in Arcata last year.
What is your take on that , Gerry?
I worked on a similar project a few years ago, collecting seeds from some of the oldest, genetically pure, specimens in Denmark.
Basically I was paid to go around the country, climb some of the oldest, finest trees here and pick a little bag full of seeds.
Paid really well, too.
Good times:)
