Located within Pacheedaht First Nation territory roughly 45 minutes from Port Renfrew, the tree stands adjacent to the unprotected Eden Grove, which features a short boardwalk trail through towering old-growth redcedars and Douglas-firs. For cycling tourists exploring the Port Renfrew big-tree circuit, it offers a sobering and visually arresting detour into a clearcut landscape dominated by a single colossal survivor.","source":"sonnet_4.6"},"website":{"value":"https://ancientforestalliance.org/photos-media/eden-grove/","source":"enrichment"},"address":{"value":"Cowichan Valley, BC V0S 1K0, Canada","source":"review_edit"},"phone":{"value":null,"source":null},"email":{"value":null,"source":null},"route_slugs":[],"centrally_administered":false,"bike_parking_detail":null,"raw_osm":{"circumference":"12","description":"A single Douglas Fir left in a clearcut","height":"69 m","leaf_cycle":"evergreen","leaf_type":"needleleaved","name":"Big Lonely Doug","natural":"tree","species":"Pseudotsuga menziesii","species:en":"Coast Douglas-fir","tourism":"attraction","wikidata":"Q60594140"},"enrichment_extras":{"reasoning":"Big Lonely Doug is a natural landmark — a single Coast Douglas-fir left standing after a 2011 clearcut in the Gordon River Valley — documented in OSM as natural=tree / tourism=attraction with a height of 69 m and circumference of 12 m.
