Yesterday, I started a thread on PortlandHikers.com about the redwoods.
When context moved to where to go, and where the big stuff is, and what's secluded, I did some searching, and learned of a tree and grove that was not familiar to me - Grove of Titans.
It's got to be within 2 miles of where I hike. One of those guarded secret places. Anyhow, the article has too many clues, and I know I could find these in a week to a month if need be. The biggest clue is not where they went in, but where they came out. And most people would focus on where they went in. Either way, not a lot of people would go looking, even if they knew. And me - I wouldn't tell either.
But I'd love to hear what this article says and means to you. In two ways. One - the trees. Two - about what they did not take into the forest with them. And whatever else. The link:
