Tree

This is one old tree, it looks like a Bristlecone Pine, but I do not believe they do not grow at this elevation. I think they only grow around 10,000 ft. we are at 8500. The Bristlecone Pine can have part of the roots die & that part of the top will die also, which is why it lives such a long time. Part of the tree may die and it will still long a long time.
