A large Jeffrey pine improbably perched off the Pacific Crest Trail on the flank of the Sierra Buttes. That's about a 45 degree talus slope! Sierra City and the North Fork of the Yuba River are down in that valley below. Sierra Nevada, California, USA.

Outside the old Tonopah Airfield, Nevada, USA. I think this one may have been planted as an ornamental back when the base was operating in WW II, because it's a bit outside its range. Joshua trees are supposed to have gotten their name from Mormon emigrants, who thought they looked like Joshua beckoning them onward.

Either a single tree with a twin trunk, or two trees side by side. Some kind of conifer, a spruce I think, growing around 10K ft (~3000 m) near the crest of the Toiyabe Range, central Nevada, USA.

From the Waterfall fire of 2004.
