Looking for trees

Redwoods are found naturally all along the northern California coast. They extend just a little bit into Oregon. The farthest north natural grove of redwoods is near Alfred E. Loeb State Park, on the Chetco River upstream from Brookings. There's a trail to the the redwoods and you can also reach an old growth grove of myrtle, from which myrtlewood is obtained. It's funny that there are no natural groves of redwoods farther north, but you can plant a redwood seedling in your hard in Oregon or Washington and pretty quick you'll see why redwoods get to be giants. I'm pretty sure it grows faster than Douglas fir, maybe not quite as thick as spruce, but a lot nicer looking.

You'll find a lot of interesting trees in the Oregon State Parks system, especially on the Oregon Coast.
