This is not the oldest tree in the world. It's the same name but completely different tree and place. Very disappointed of this copycat

What a wonderful gem in this area. There's no other tree like this one in the viscinity. I was fortunate to have reached here when there was no one else, and spent a good amount of time in its serene shade. There is roadside parking just opposite the entrance, but you can park at El Corte De Madera main parking and walk till here through Sierra Morena trail. It was a great experience visiting here. Surrounding is clean and well maintained. Greatly appreciate the visitors for being cautious.

Only to one side of tree thats fenced off, to get right up to tree there are steps. You can still get a good view and close up in a wheelchair

Does anyone have a picture of the Methausela Tree that is 4848 years old, believe it's on Whites Mountain, CA. I have been to Fish lake, UT. The Aspen Tree Unit is said to be 80,000 years old, however, it's the off spring of the original. Not =

The tree is on hwy 35 about 5-10 miles south. Of Woodside road. There is a small parking lot on the east side of hwy 35. Ok, now that you know where it is, please treat the tree as a treasure (which it is!!)
