Kauri Forest



On our way south we drove through the Kauri Forest on the west coast. Kauris are very ancient trees and can become quite large. This is the largest, living Kauri tree with a trunk height of 58 feet, total height of 169 feet and total girth of 52 feet. That's one big tree! Couldn't begin to get it all in the photo.
