200ft-long cedar among dozens of tree trunks scattered across beach after storm


More than 200ft long and 13ft around the trunk, this is one piece of wood that nobody will be throwing along the beach for the dog to fetch.
The giant western red cedar was one of dozens of trees washed up at La Push, a small community in Washington State on the U.S. west coast.





Photographer Philip Lacham found himself dwarfed by the tree as he stood alongside it on the beach.
The tree is thought to have been carried into the Pacific Ocean from the Olympic National Park on the north-west corner of the state near the Canadian border.

Must have been a helluva storm to push this puppy downstream!

Holy smokes

Hey L2L - they say it is just a way from the Canadian border. At least you know where to collect some mantel piece displays, or firewood if you need some serious fuel.

Most likely came off the cosat of BC, there are some HUGE and VERY OLD trees in BC just ask Siam
