Declared the largest
live oak in Texas in 2000, the champion tree has a circumference greater than 32
feet and stands at least 67 feet high. The ancient tree is situated in shallow
bodies of water, remnants of shifting river and bayou channels. It has provided
shelter to countless numbers of migratory birds that find a place to rest and
feed within its amazing crown that extends more than 100 feet.
