No one really knows ...

No one really knows the exact percentage of how much old growth Douglas fir, Redwood, and Euclayptus has been burnt and logged in the past 150 years. Estimates range from 70 to as much as 99% depending on the region and species. With those kinds of numbers, this makes old reports even more valuable than ever before. And any first hand measurements are extremely important for big tree researchers.

As with the reports ...

As with the reports of giant Douglas fir, and Redwoods exceeding 400 feet in height, we must decide whether the trained foresters and lumbermen where incompetent at math, or we have to consider the real possibility such giant trees existed. Measurements made by certified surveyors and foresters should not be laughed at and relegated to myth, especially when they are FIRST HAND accounts. And besides, measuring a fallen tree is far more accurate than trying to measure a standing tree.

Ferguson continues, ...

Ferguson continues, "...At 5 ft. from tho ground it measures 18 ft. in diameter, and at the extreme end where it has broken in its fall, it is 3 ft. in diameter. This tree has been much burnt by fire, and I fully believe that before it fell it must have been more than 500 ft. high. As it now lies it forms a complete bridge acioss a deep ravine."

William Ferguson, ...

William Ferguson, Inspector of State Forests. Melbourne Botanic Garden, 21 February, 1872. TO CLEMENT HODGKINSON, ESQ., ASSISTANT-C0MMISSI0NER OF LANDS AND SURVEY. ..."Many of the trees that have fallen through decay and by bush fires measure 350 ft. in length, and with girth in proportion. In one instance I measured with the tape line one huge specimen that lay prostrate across a tributary of the Watts, and found it to be 435 ft. from its roots to the top of the trunk."

There was a tree in Australia bigger than that back in the 1800's

The biggest report ...

The biggest report for Redwood I have come across, was 424 ft. But I wouldn't be surprised if some graced the 450 ft threshold.
