Description
This mighty tree in Santa Maria del Tule, Oaxaca, Mexico, has a circumference of over 160 feet at its base, and is between 2000 and 3000 years old, making it one of the oldest living things on earth.
Arbol del Tule is Mexico's most famous tree, and some say the world's largest single biomass. Not the tallest, but the most biomass
The Montezuma Cypress (Taxodium mucronatum), or Ahuehuete (meaning "deep water") in the ancient Nahuatl language, is Mexico's national tree.

F/L. This is a magnificent monarch. I'm so glad you captured it, and I'm so happy to be able to see it (even if not in person).
