  Tallest living Christmas tree-Coeur d'Alene sets world record

 Coeur d'Alene, ID, USA  -- The Coeur d'Alene Resort in Coeur d'Alene, Idaho features a 162-foot tall Christmas tree (a grand fir) decorated with over 30,000 lights and two miles of extension cords-which sets the world record for the Tallest living Christmas tree.

  “This year we are animating the world’s tallest living Christmas tree,” said Jerry Jaeger, president and co-owner of Hagadone Hospitality. “We will have thousands of lights all twinkling in time to the music of Jingle Bells.”

   The Tallest living Christmas tree will have more than 40,000 lights along with a 10-foot star at the top. Two miles of electrical wiring connect the LED lights, which use 90 percent less energy than conventional light bulbs. The 162-foot Grand Fir is more than twice as tall as New York’s Rockefeller Center Christmas tree.

   "The Holiday Light Show is all about entertaining the family – and kids in particular," said Bill Reagan, general manager of The Coeur d’Alene Resort. “Watching the lights dance around the tree will be very exciting this year.”

    Founded in 1986, the Holiday Light Show now includes more than 250 displays and 1.5 million lights, and has become a favorite Northwest holiday destination.

   The Tallest living Christmas tree and accompanying Holiday Light Show make their home on the shores of Lake Coeur d'Alene, where families (and holiday enthusiasts) have the chance to take the "Journey to the North Pole" boat ride to visit Santa and Mrs. Claus at their North Pole Workshop. The Show runs through January 1st.

 
  The Tallest living Christmas tree is twice the size of the one that makes its home in Rockefeller Center.   

   
The previous Guinness world record for the Tallest living Christmas tree was set by a Christmas living tree in Oregon that measures 'only' 156 feet tall.        Related world records:
