Tree Tuesday--Bennet Juniper

in #treetuesday8 years ago (edited)

The Bennett Juniper is the largest known juniper tree in America, located on a privately owned nature preserve within the Stanislaus National Forest in Tuolumne County, California. Its height is 78 feet with an average crown spread of 56 feet, and a circumference of 480 inches or 40 feet! I'm lucky to have seen this awesome tree on multiple occasions, it's only about an hour from where I live. If your ever in the area, it's definitely worth the drive. The tree has been estimated to be 2200 years old! @old-guy-photos! #treetuesday

Definitely checking this out if I'm ever in the area. Thanks for sharing!

It's a long drive on a bumpy gravel road, but well worth it!

Wow that has seen a lot of things come and go.

I know, it's interesting to think about!

Wow! Now, that’s a tree!!!
