Beginner Tree Identification
Before going outside to look at and identify trees, participants in this Friends of Fresh Pond Reservation program discussed basic information about trees with walk leader Susan Coolidge. Some unusual examples of trees include the oldest (about 4600 years, a Bristlecone Pine in the California), the tallest (379.1 feet, a California Redwood), and largest in diameter (33 feet, an Ahuehuete Cypress in Oaxaca, Mexico.)
