A little back story as to why a tutorial is needed rather than just following the pattern… I blame my husband. After I finished AND PUBLISHED the pattern

The seeds are packed with all the genetic material needed to develop into the oldest type of organism on the planet, a bristlecone pine tree. Bristlecone pines are a group of 3 species of pine trees that can live for thousands of years. The oldest confirmed, non-clonal organism on the planet is a 4,850 year old bristlecone pine. Its called Methuselah, and its exact location in California is kept secret. The oldest known non-living tree was also a bristlecone pine, called Prometheus, that was accidentally cut down in 1964 at 4,900 years old. Dendroclimatologists depend on these ancient trees’ rings to provide the longest continual climate record. Bristlecone pine thrives in harsh environments, especially rocky soil, with high winds and no rainfall. This typically limits them to high altitudes where they don’t have to compete with other plants. Keep this in mind when finding your tree a home. Bristlecone pine wood is resistant to rot and insects. This means trees can continue to stand for centuries after they’ve died and even erode from water and wind like stone.

The trees that rewrote historyUnzipped duffels and an assortment of video-appendages splayed on the concrete in a perfect half-circle around our maroon Ford minivan. Ricardo crouched down, jimmying camera gear, his hands full of cords, straps, and battery packs. Arthur performed ritualistic checks, opening and closing the van doors, arranging and rearranging the hierarchy of baggage in the trunk.

Once thought to be the oldest living tree in the world, Methuselah was germinated before the Egyptian pyramids were built.

The second oldest tree in the world is located in the White Mountains in the Inyo National Forest of California. Somewhere within the Ancient Bristlecone Pine Forest, there is a tree that was alive when the pyramids were built—the Methuselah Tree. While we were traveling along the California-Nevada

Mt. Charleston is another staple of outdoor life for adventurous Las Vegan's. Countless trails allow you to tower above the Vegas valley, and forget it altogether. While you're there it's impossible not to love the natural beauty is has to offer. Everything from the towering cliffs and Bristlecone Pine, to the smaller, finer, things like the fine grain of a fallen Pine are sights to take in and enjoy. The grain from this fallen pine could not be passed up: reflecting on its beautiful natural color and subtle waves brings a sense of calm and serenity.
