Lone pine tree growing along the trail to the Old Tin Mines in the Franklin Mountains State Park. Has single silver Christmas ornament!
Chihuahuan desert.
Weather on this day was clear and cold. This was the only pine tree I saw in this area of the Franklin Mountains State Park.
That pine tree looks planted, and smaller than a typical mature size, since it does not have regular irrigation. Possibly it was planted as a memorial by someone?
