"The Grandparent Tree"
This was our destination last Friday afternoon. This Ponderosa Pine is know locally as the Grandfather Tree. I really wanted to call it the Grandmother Tree instead, but decided to be diplomatic and call it the Grandparent Tree. For reference, the scar at the bottom of the tree is about a half a foot or so taller than I am at 5'7".

What a fabulous picture(s) of the huge tree. It's great the way you were able to piece it together. I really can get a sense of just how tall it is. Awesome!
