Hiking

The Lincoln Tree is the fourth largest tree in the world by volume. It bears a notable scar that runs high up the trunk, allowing you to stand partially inside this monolithic organism. The Lincoln tree towers 255 feet tall and is 31 feet in diameter.

Hiking

A truly impressive tree. Hard to describe - you have to see it at least once. Pictures only partially convey its size and grace...
