Description
I photographed the iconic Old Patriarch Tree in Grand Teton National Park. Tree is approximately 1100 years old the oldest tree in Grand Teton National Park. The tree is a Limber Pine a solitary, highland pines, tempered by harsh environment, This is the reason for the name limber. Its way of twisting and turning but rarely splintering against the ferocious winds and storms in it environment. Its bowed,bent and twisting the surviving weathered bark worn and to a reddish brown. Half of the trees trunk is missing due to lightning strikes and scars from fires can be seen. The "Old Patriarch" sits majestically in the sagebrush flats while the snow capped Cathedral Group of the Tetons sits over its background.
