YOSEMITE NATIONAL PARK
#24664 Considered the oldest and largest tree in the Maricopa Grove of Big Trees, the Grizzly Giant is one of the
symbols for which Yosemite's sequoia groves are best known. Located in the Lower Grove, the Grizzly Giant is
2,700 years old. The tree stands 200 feet tall and its base is 31 feet across. Its first visible lower branch is 6 feet in
diameter. Mere statistics cannot capture the greatness and beauty of this ancient sequoia.
