Angel Oak Tree

The Angel Oak is on John's Island and is estimated to be in excess of 1400 years old. It stands 65 ft tall, measures 28 ft in circumference, and shades with its crown an area of 17,000 square feet. It's widest crown spread point-to-point is 180 ft, which is longer than any other live oak in the country. Its longest limb is 105 feetin length.

It is awesome to stand and look at it!
