Andrew, This tree is dead- it fell a while ago. The height, as expected, was WAY off. More like 135-140. Lee is familiar with the grove I think.

Was this or is this a valid measurement? Probably from the American Forests database, I looked through it and couldn't find much except a large diameter white pine in Maine. I gather that a measurement made (by whatever means) in 1984 may not mean much now, for instance are the trees still standing? -AJ COMMON NAME EASTERN WHITE PINE SCIENTIFIC NAME PINUS STROBUS LOCATION MARQUETTE, MICHIGAN (BOTH) NOMINATOR PAUL THOMPSON (BOTH) MOST RECENT MEASUREMENT 1984 (BOTH) CO-CHAMPIONS: CIRCUMFERENCE AT 4 1/2 FT. 186 IN. 202 IN.
