There are many fir trees 300 feet high in the Willamette National forest, and it is almost certain there are a few extremely tall Douglas-fir trees 300 to 350 feet high in some hidden valleys awaiting exploration. The only way to find out would be to map the Oregon forests with LiDAR from the air or via Satellite with GLAS or VCL .
The official tallest Douglas-fir (and tallest known tree in the state) is the Doerner fir at Brummitt creek, Coos Co. Oregon. This tree is situated on a steep slope, and half of its 11.5 ft thick trunk is on higher ground. The tree measures 336 feet to lowest end of trunk, and 316 ft to highest end -- the average height of the tree, therefore, is 326 feet. About 15 feet of this 600 year old tree's top has died, and it has lost 3 feet of height since it was discovered in 1989, originally at 339 feet total height at lowest ground level. But to reiterate, there are many unexplored sections of Oregon's remaining Old growth patches, and monsters exceeding the Doerner fir are likely to be found if enough interest were gathered to map the terrain with such technologies as I have mentioned.
