Big Lonely Doug and Eden Grove Hike!

Join us for the FIRST public interpretive hike to the spectacular Big Lonely Doug, Canada's 2nd largest Douglas-fir, standing alone in a clearcut. This massive tree was first measured and nick-named by the Endangered Ecosystems Alliance's Ken Wu and by TJ Watt in 2014. Learn about this iconic tree - the subject of numerous articles, documentaries, and a major book - and learn about the old-growth forest ecosystem that Doug once grew in from forest activists Ken Wu and TJ Watt. Afterwards, hike to the adjacent Eden Grove, one of the finest unprotected ancient forests in the world that few have seen.
