An article appeared in the Portland (Oregon) Oregonian this week about
the find of a new champion chinquapin. It mentioned the group
"Ascending the Giants"...http://www.ascendingthegiants.com as the
measurers...thought that ENTS might want to check it out!

ENTS,

These guys seem to have alot in common with ENTS. I admire their
desire to protect and conserve these giants. Personally I think our
measuring methods surpass theirs, but what matters most is their love
and respect for the trees.

I wonder if they know of us. It would be nice if both ENTS and
Ascending The Giants could correspond and cooperate in our efforts. I
wonder if Bob Van Pelt has had any contact with them?
