Lindsey Creek tree close to twice the size of the largest living single-stem tree, the giant sequoia known as General Sherman. Skip Johnson, a Fieldbrook logger interviewed in 1971, testified that he witnessed the Lindsey Creek Tree after it was lying on the ground. He reported it as the tallest tree in Fieldbrook. He stated that a family member measured its diameter at 19 feet at 130 feet off the ground, and 9.5 feet at 260 feet off the ground, and its total height slightly exceeded 390 feet. If true, it was taller than any other known tree. Hyperion, another coast redwood (Sequoia
Albino redwood Albino redwood An 'albino' redwood is a redwood tree which is unable to produce chlorophyll, and so has white needles instead of the normal green. It survives by obtaining sugar through the connections between its roots and those of neighboring normal redwood(s), usually the parent tree from whose base it has sprouted. (Sap exchange through roots is a general phenomenon among redwoods.) About 400 are known. They can be found in both Henry Cowell Redwoods State Park and Humboldt Redwoods State Park, with eleven trees in the first. However, the exact locations are not publicized to protect the rare trees.
