Picture

[edit]

Somone should really find a picture of this.

Well, the exact location is not known to the public... Maybe a government photo? Piet 09:28, 24 August 2006 (UTC)[reply]

Just a quick edit insertion here to comment on that image link. That photo in the link above, is on a couple of sites, and the source is a professional photographer. I've seen the source file, and it's definitely copyrighted. I don't think he'll let that one go as a complimentary contribution.Mdvaden (talk) 20:46, 26 August 2008 (UTC)[reply]
Recently, I was going to add a basic description of this past California champion redwood location to my own redwood page at Giant Redwoods Page.
I'd certainly be open to sharing a reduced size image for Wikipedia. Mdvaden (talk) 02:18, 25 August 2008 (UTC)[reply]
Photo Update - Last November, 2008, I got a photograph of Stratosphere Giant. Would like to update here by saying that for the present, I don't plan to make it available. For a reason too. Wikipedia is non-profit and volunteer. But I noticed that quite a few websites are starting to re-publish Wikipedia pages and content. And those sites are not volunteer or non-profit from what I can see.Mdvaden (talk) 02:43, 23 August 2009 (UTC)[reply]

Age

[edit]

How old is this tree? Please mention the source!

Usually age is unknown for the oldest trees because centers can be hollow, and there is not neccessarily one growth ring for every year.Mdvaden (talk) 02:44, 23 August 2009 (UTC)[reply]
