FRESHWATER -- Two tree-sitters protesting in Pacific Lumber Co.-owned redwood trees in Freshwater got a stellar visitor on Monday afternoon.

Folk music legend Joan Baez, in town for two shows at Humboldt State University, dropped by to offer her support.

"'Sup! Air a little thin up there?" the 1960s icon shouted to the protesters, who were more than 150 feet above the ground.
