Oldest tree you've climbed???

[paradise]

does it count that I got off the ground of this mountain ash in tasmania...

 

No Probably not.

 

That must be a different species from what we call mountain ash here. It surely isn't Sorbus aucuparia...?

Eucalyptus regnans - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

 

Maybe the tasmainians have bigger mountains?

How can you carbon date something that is still alive?

[Mark Bolam]

Because dating something that isn't alive is called necrophilia....
