This is called The Big Stump. The tree was discovered in 1852 and it took a team of
5 men 22 days to fell it but it did not fall for several days. John Muir was so angered 
by the men that felled the tree so he called them Vandals who then dance upon the stump.
The Squirrel is called a Douglas Squirrel and there are loads of them about.
