Noissee, what you describe is what I am used to seeing in the woods here. It is not unusual to walk through a grove of pines or hickory with tall, thin, almost taperless trunks going to a hight of 30-40 feet before you see their first branches. This is usually covered by a canopy of foliage that is so dense no direct sunlight reaches the ground below them. The understory growth is usually limited to ferns and mosses. It is interesting to see the diversaty of birds and small furry critters who live in these groves.
I may take some pictures to show what I am refering to.
