Английская Википедия:Dave Evans Bicentennial Tree
The Dave Evans Bicentennial Tree, a Шаблон:Convert[1] tall karri tree, was pegged for climbing to celebrate Australia's bicentenary in 1988.[2] It is in Warren National Park in southwestern Australia.[3] Although it has been used as a fire lookout, it is used mainly as a tourist attraction.[4] The lookout platform was reached by climbing 165 metal spikes hammered into the trunk.[2]
The Bicentennial Tree is one of three lookout trees, along with the Diamond and Gloucester Tree. Diamond Tree was closed in 2019. The Gloucester Tree and Bicentennial trees were also closed in 2023 citing a need for increased safety measures. It has not been ruled out that the all 3 trees will remain closed permanently.[5]
All three are near Pemberton, Western Australia.[2]
The tree was named after local politician Dave Evans.[6]
