hello i have a small acreage in the Boisdale hills of Cape Breton with some big hemlock. I can not get to see them easily as the terrain is rough. I am 67 years old with both knees replaced and back surgery I can not see them anymore. I am thinking they are over 300 hundred years old or more

Welcome to the iNaturalist forum @brian! I moved your post to the #nature-talk category and gave it a provisional title, please feel free to edit it by clicking on the pencil icon next to it. I’m so sorry you can’t visit these trees any longer.

That’s beautiful country. Do you have photos of the hemlocks?
