It must have been quite a fluke that their boat sank in front of some
"real" old growth.  God must have wanted them to tell the story!  :-)  :-)

A couple of years ago I hiked through some "real old growth" on eastern
and western coastal Vancouver Island.  I hiked a good 10 km in an 8hr day
while surveying logging roads in the Bonanza, Tahsish and Tsitika watersheads.

Just my 2 bits on the scientific method!  :-)
