Ascending the Giants presentation next week
Nature Night next Tuesday at the Audubon Society will feature two tree climbers that have ascended some of the largest trees in the world.
Brian French and Will Koomjain of Ascending the Giants will speak at the free lecture from 7-8:30 p.m. on their non-confrontational approach to Old Growth conservation and advocacy.
They are tree climbers, filmmakers, researchers, and they are also the state coordinators for the Oregon Big Tree Registry, certainly an important undertaking for a state with so many champion trees.
