Bristlecones at sunset with moon, White Mountains, California
| Description: | Bristlecone Pines are found above 10,000 feet in the White Mountains of California and across the Great Basin Ranges of Nevada. With some still-living trees aged over 4,500 years, these are the longest living species of tree in the world. These dramatic snags of ancient Bristlecones glow in the red light of a stormy sunset, which reveals the weathered texture of the wood. |
