Two of the oldest known, slow growing bristlecone pine trees come from California’s White Mountains and are believed to both be around 5000 years old. They were named Methuselah and Prometheus and their exact location is a secret kept hidden by park services for protection purposes. They are the second oldest (known) surviving trees.
