Still there! Since 2011 a Redwood Forest Defense tree-sitter named “Carbohydrate” has lived at high altitudes perched in the redwood canopy near Strawberry Rock. The occupation is a response to Green Diamond Resource Company’s one-time plans to log in the area, a favorite local hiking spot. 

Recently, quadcopter pilot extraordinaire and friend o’ the LoCO Chad Johnson visited Carbohydrate and captured aerial footage of the activist treetop-jamming with a friend. Soar below.
