This Douglas fir (Pseudotsuga Menziesii) was planted on 30 April 1976. The high altitude (almost 7000 feet) has probably inhibited the tree's growth. The tree is only about 6 feet tall and has been pulled up once. (The blue device in the foreground of the picture of the tree is a GPS unit.)

The tree is located at 35 deg 12.368 min N; 111 deg 39.230 min W
