The reddish-brown bark of the world's largest tree, a giant sequoia (Sequoiadendron giganteum), makes it stand out from surrounding snow-covered trees during winter in Sequoia National Park on the western slopes of the Sierra Nevada mountain range in California, USA. Nicknamed the General Sherman Tree, it stands feet ( meters) tall and has a circumference of feet ( meters) at its base. A lone visitor in a red snow jacket gives scale to this immense redwood tree that is estimated to be between 1,800 and 2,700 years old.
