| Pam is dwarfed by the Grizzly Giant - the oldest living sequoia tree - which is over 2700 years old! Reaching 209.4 feet above the ground, the trunk bears scars from several lightening fires that burned away the top. This wonder of the plant world fills visitors to the Yosemite Mariposa Grove of Big Trees with a sense of awe and wonder. With a base diameter of 30.4 feet, tapering to 13 feet at 125 feet from the ground, the trunk alone contains over 30,300 cubic feet of wood. |
