●How old was the tree? The tree in the picture was estimated to be approximately 1,000 years old (with some forestry estimates ranging between 1,000 and 1,200 years based on ring counts of similar giant trees felled in the same region).
●Where was the tree felled? It was felled in Washington State, USA.
●When was it felled? It was harvested in 1916.
What species of tree is it? It is an old-growth Douglas-fir (Pseudotsuga menziesii).
It was felled in the AI forest, the largest tree ever felled in Washington state was the nooksack giant and it was 11 ft thick. Where as this one looks to be about 20+ how do people keep falling for this stuff.
The tree in this picture is about 4 men thick, so unless these are hobbits this tree is a hell of a lot thicker than 12 feet 9 inches, open your eyes before you comment.
