Ancient Bristlecone Pine Forest Patriarch Grove at 11,000 ft. elev. This picturesque old bristlecone pine, locally referred to as "The Old Ranger", still stands braving the elements of it's harsh environment. Sculptured by wind, sand & ice, in its grotesqueness it is still a thing of beauty. Because of their ability to survive in this harsh environment, bristlecone pines growing in this area are among the oldest living things in the world. Taken by Leland J. Prater July, 1965
