It is currently the sixth largest redcedar in #Canada - according to the #BCBigTreeRegistry 🌲

#Giant #ancient #OldGrowth #cedar #trees in #ClayoquotSound 🌲🌲These #magnificent #ElderTrees were once all on #BCgovernment & #logging industry chop wishlist. They were saved by thousands of us #EcoActivists blockading for years to #protect them. #WorthMoreStanding for #biodiversity #ecosystems & future generations to enjoy.

I always #kayak w/ some #toy #guardians aboard. I bring some of my figurines, on every adventure trip. I'm 47, going on 48, in February. I still enjoy toy figurines. You can retain a childlike spirit, no matter how old you grow, chronologically. Never stop being playful, because that's when your spirit dies.

#ClayoquotSound #WarOfTheWoods was where I learned how to be a serious #ecoactivist . I was 15 yrs old. I was arrested multiple times during the long fight to save #OldGrowth in #BritishColumbia . We're still fighting to this day. #StopEcocide #stopclearcuts #forestdefenders #earthprotectors #waterprotectors #OneEarth #SacredForests #WorthMoreStanding #WorthMoreStanding #PNW #PacificNorthwest #Historic

#Gigantic #RedCedar #eldertree on #ClayoquotArm #wilderness #hikingtrail ❤🌲
This #OldGrowth #majestic #tree was saved. Other #ancienttrees were clearcut.
We saved #ancientforests areas from #ClayoquotSound #WarOfTheWoods in 90s. Many OG cutblocks have been fully decimated since. BC government lied to public. Irreplaceable old growth forests are still being clearcut in #BritishColumbia #Canada weekly🌲
