I was on the road in Cali last week for work and had the pleasure to take a ride up the western slopes of the Sierra Nevada Mountains of California.

maan I see some tree.... BIG trees.....giant trees...amazing... they usually live for 2000 - 3000 years ..

Giant sequoias are the world's largest trees by volume. They grow to an average height of 50–85 m (160–279 ft) and 6–8 m (20–26 ft) in diameter. Record trees have been measured to be 94.8 m (311 ft) in height and over 17 m (56 ft) in diameter.[1] The oldest known giant sequoia based on ring count is 3,500 years old. Sequoia bark is fibrous, furrowed, and may be 90 cm (3.0 ft) thick at the base of the columnar trunk. It provides significant fire protection for the trees.
