Book Description
While traveling north on California Highway 395 in the summer of 1996 with his young daughter and niece, Gil Thibault discovered the Bristlecone Pine National Forest from just a small road sign in Big Pine, California. He was amazed by the special beauty, architecture, and longevity of the trees. His desire to write a book about the Bristlecone Pines stayed subdued, but never went extinct. Finally, in 2010, after years of dreams and recurrent thoughts, he decided to write this book, a two-year labor of love. This is a friendly and informative guide to the unbelievable beauty and scientific value of the Bristlecone Pines of the White Mountains in central California.
