The Regenerating Power of Big Basin’s Redwoods

The ~4 feet of rain we had this season is helping quite a bit ... I cant dig a hole in my back yard without hitting wet still. I even doubt there are any of the smouldering roots left. Redwoods are tough as long as we arent cutting them down.

I like how this insinuates that you are digging holes in your backyard with regularity to even notice this. Otherwise, it is an odd way of saying it's wet =)

Redwoods are touch even when you do cut them down. The trunks will put up water shoots immediately, and you'll have another small tree in a couple of years. The problem is all the other species that live in an old growth forest can't survive in a brand new forest.
