Let's go, Dan. We just barely resuscitated this thing, don't let it die again.

 

[Derrek]

Here is one to get it started again.

 

[tomthetreeman]

I'm going with Sitka Spruce.

 

[Derrek]

Nope.

 

[oldoakman]

Sequoia sempervirens

 

[Derrek]

Nope.

 

[tomthetreeman]

Giant Sequoia?

 

[Derrek]

No. This picture is taken in Oregon. The tree is very common, but this guy is big.

 

[tomthetreeman]

Tsuga canadensis?

 

[Derrek]

No. It is a western tree.

 

[tomthetreeman]

Alright then, T. heterophylla?

 

[Derrek]

Nope. This species does get big, this one is just fatter than most, but not as tall as some. It is like a Tsuga...

 

[tomthetreeman]

Oh, I got it… It's Pseudotsuga menzeisii (sp?)

 

[Derrek]

Yeah! This is the Big Tree at Oregon Caves National Monument.
