Wednesday Potluck - Oregon's Largest Juniper Tree

I've seen it on the map for years and it was not very far away.  "Oregon's Largest Juniper Tree".  The location is to the north of the Devil's Gardens.   It wasn't until the other day when we happened to be out in that neck  of the woods that we finally got to see it.  I thought the fence around the base was a nice touch.


I had to step back quite a distance to get the whole tree in the photo.  But, that does not give you a feel for how large this tree is.  The next two photos help with that.



I wished that I had a diameter tape with me so that I could measure it.  But I didn't so does anyone know?  Or have any good guesses on what the diameter might be? 


It really felt more like one of the large cedars I have seen, which is juniper's larger cousin.  Truly a magnificent specimen, it looked healthy and happy.  Barring any future fires it should still be here for a long time to come.
