That's an incredible tree! I had no idea the worlds' largest tree was in
Mexico. Do you have anymore info on the tree such as species, age , etc?
Great picture also.

Hi all,
Largest tree in the world! We visited it on our vacation near Oaxaca Mexico.
I suppose that must be the Tule Tree, if my memory isn't crazy right now. I have heard of it. But to me it doesn't look even close to being as big as General Sherman.
It's really cool though. It's been a while since I've seen pictures of it, so I can't remember much about it, like for instance, how tall it is.

Bob Van Pelt was at Congaree this weekend and the volume of El Tule
came up. Sherman is ~52,000 cubic feet and he said El Tule is much
smaller (25,000? I forget the exact number).
But yeah, I thought it was probably bigger too.
