Kouta!,
The Kirnizsch Creek Gorge is absolutely beautiful and obviously a prime place for tall trees. Those Norway Spruce are awesome. Here in the US we struggle to find them taller than 120 feet with approximately 145 feet being the tallest. It seems that there they fill the same place as Eastern White Pine does in many places here. Their height is comparable. Though at 194 feet tall, the Kirnizch big spruce is a bit taller than any tree currently known in the eastern US.
Kouta, Job well done and an awesome report!
