Additional comments

An informal group of eight tall examples of Wellingtonia competing with each other for light. They appear to be quite evenly sized with the largest standing at 523cm. The bark showing likely tree-creeper burrowing (both for protection and seeking food). Deeply furrowed reddish bark that feels soft. A group that strikes skyward in long reddish fingers, suppressing any underwood.
