History

These notes are derived from
http://www.whereswarren.com/wwmanji.html
A fascinating attraction in the One Tree Bridge area is 'The Four Aces',
located 22 kilometres out of Manjimup on Graphite Road. This is home
to a row of four huge karri trees in a row and the effect of gazing up at
trees which are nearly 75 metres tall and over 400 years old, is quite awe
inspiring. There is a placard near the trees which announces: "Welcome
to the Karri forest. Walk the Karri Glade Path a 15 minute easy grade
loop. Karri is one of the largest living things on our planet. One tree can
weigh over 200 tonnes, grow to 90 metre in height, use 170 litres of
water a day, produce one kilogram of honey per season, take nine people
holding hands to span its girth, and do it all in 400 years "These simple
statistics, although impressive, still do not capture the majesty and
impressiveness of a fully grown karri tree.
