the bark goes 23" up tunk on the smaller tree and 66" on the bigger one and the big tree has fissured bark that is about 1/2" deep. the big tree has fire ants at the base I'm sure if the other one does or not. After further inspection the big tree was cut down many years ago and it is problably closer to the 400-500 year old range!!! Also the big tree has a small trunk size of about 3-5 inches the younger tree has a base of about 3-6 inches.
