🏆 Champion Klamath Foxtail Pine! (🌲 Pinus b

🏆 Champion Klamath Foxtail Pine!

(🌲 Pinus balfouriana subspecies balfouriana)

In 2010, I first found this tree while backpacking through the Trinity Alps Wilderness in far northern California.

Just last week, thirteen years later, my 11 year old son Sylas and I returned with tools to officially measure and nominate this tree.

While points fell just short of the overall champion, it is the second largest foxtail pine known and the largest of the subspecies of the Klamath foxtail pine.

It measures 24’ circumference 84’ tall 44’ crown spread for 383 AF points.

(I know what you’re thinking, but that actually stands for American Forest points. 🙃)

Tap our L I N K for the full story and learn how to measure a tree.

Klamath foxtail pines exist above 6500’ in the Klamath Mountains, often on serpentine soils. Find the one spot in this region you can actually drive to one in our book Conifer Country.

Foxtail pines are relatives of the Great Basin bristlecone (Pinus longaeva) and Rocky Mountain bristlecone (Pinus aristata). However, foxtail pines are endemic to California’s Sierra Nevada and Klamath Mountains.

The best way to see this species is to hike to them. This particular tree required my son and I to do a 30 mile backpacking trip. It was full of wonder and beauty!

💎Orchid garden along the Smith River’s South

💎Orchid garden along the Smith River’s South Fork💎

The Smith is the most undeveloped and protected river remaining in California, and the largest completely undammed river from source to sea in the state. Much of the watershed features serpentine formations of the Josephine Ophiolite, and large areas are suited to rare plant life that thrives in harsh settings and in soils containing metals and minerals that are not conducive to typical forest growth.

The South Fork comes from higher elevations of the Siskiyou Wilderness where snow melt lingers and contributes to the basin’s highest flows through the spring.

Much of the Smith’s quality is attributed to nearly all the watershed being in public ownership as the Smith River National Recreation Area with legislated priorities on land and water protection. In addition, all of the 18 mile main stem and 320 miles of tributaries were designated as National Wild and Scenic Rivers in 1981.

This marked the first time that the streams of virtually an entire river basin were together designated in the National Wild and Scenic Ricer System as part of a watershed-wide approach.

💎 Stream Orchid, AKA Chatterbox (Epipactis gigantea)

Where have you found these stunning (and well camouflaged!) orchids blooming this summer? They’re surprisingly common, though often go unnoticed because they blend in so well with their surroundings.
