Amazingly awesome to think of the life of this tree! Thank God no loggers took it down--nor forest fires, nor earthquakes.  --Just a quiet life in a California forest for all these years.

3200 Years in One Photo

Not every tree
Has a nickname, but 'The President' has earned it. This giant sequoia
Stands at 247 feet  tall, and is estimated to be over 3,200 years
Old. Imagine, this tree was already 1200 years old when Jesus walked
The earth.

The trunk of
The  president measures at 27 feet across, with 2 BILLION needles
From base to top.

Because of its
Unbelievable size, this tree has never been photographed in its
Entirety. Until now. A team of National Geographic photographers have
Worked along with scientists to try and create the first photo that
Shows the president in all its glory.

They had to
Climb the tree with pulleys and levers, and took thousands of
Photos.  Of those, they selected 126 and stitched them together,
To get this incredible portrait of the President.

                                                                                                                                                                   And here it is:

Incredible, is it not?
