I would have to guess that these three oak trees sitting atop this knoll are 100 yrs old, maybe more. This image was made near Folsom, Ca on October 5, 2012. In the gold rush days, the Pony Express ran through this area, as downtown Folsom is located a mere 10 miles away. The California Gold Rush began in 1849 about 30 miles away from this very spot. Perhaps these old oaks were even around during that historic era.
