Stagg, Ancient sequoia in Giant Sequoia National Monument, US.
The Stagg tree stands among other giant sequoias displaying thick red-orange bark and black fire marks on its massive trunk.
The establishment of Giant Sequoia National Monument in 2000 marked a crucial step in protecting these ancient trees, which can reach ages up to 3,400 years.
Native American tribes connect with these forests through ceremonies and traditional practices, regarding the giant sequoias as living monuments of their heritage.
Visitors can reach the Stagg tree through designated hiking trails within the monument, where interpretive signs explain the natural features of sequoia groves.
Tree ring patterns within Stagg provide scientists with data about climate changes and fire patterns spanning multiple centuries in California.
