Ancient Bristlecone Pine Forest, California The bristlecones are some of my favorite trees on the planet. One of these trees up here in the White Mountains is over 5,000 years old--the oldest living thing on the planet. I have renewed my acquaintance with these trees several times, and am always awed by their adaptability and patience, growing above 10,000 feet where not much else can grow.
