A few months ago, on a tip from Abel Pharmboy of Terra Sigillata, I paid a visit to some of this planet’s senior residents — the bristlecone pines of Windy Ridge, near Alma, Colorado. These magnificent trees stand at the very edge of treeline, in a landscape barren of anything much larger than a tuft of moss. They have the neighborhood to themselves because this is a rough place to make a living.

Nice picture, but a 3.4Mb image on the front page is a bit big for viewing from here.
Well, now, that’s exactly the kind of feedback an amateur like me needs!
It previewed just fine, so I paid no attention to the file’s gigundity.
It’s 300k now, and looks OK to me.
How does it look to you?
Everything about bristlecones is pretty — the needles are nice, the cones are beautiful, the bark is stellar.
Any idea how old the oldest in this stand are?
Multiple sources, including (if I recall correctly) the plaque at the site, give the stand’s age at “over a thousand years.” The oldest bristlecone in Colorado is believed to be one of the Mt. Goliath stand, at 1,570 years old. Even that tree is kind of a spring chicken among bristlecones, given that Methuselah has been with us for over 4,700 years.
Bristlecones are notable for more than their otherworldly beauty — a subject I hope to take up sometime soon.
Jim, thanks for the link and reminding me that we talked about this awhile back. The photo makes me long for the old stompin’ grounds.
I just drove thru Alma last weekend, Jim. My buddy wasn’t one of those to pay homage so we kept going. Thank you for being on top of the important things.
Best,
D
