Stephen Sillett, inspired by his childhood experiences, became a pioneer in exploring the crowns of ancient coast redwoods. His daring climbs revealed a rich ecosystem teeming with life, including lichens, soil mats, and even new tree growths. Sillett's work has transformed our understanding of these towering trees, highlighting their ecological importance and the need for conservation. His research shows that redwoods are not just individual giants but vibrant habitats for diverse species, urging us to look beyond the obvious and explore the hidden worlds above.
