Few other plants can survive much less compete with the Bristlecone in these conditions. species: Pinus longaeva photo-id: BCP-029 request pricing ![]() | ![]() White Mountains Bristlecone Pine In the 1960s Cores from Bristlecones were used to calibrate the radiocarbon dating process now used as the standard by scientists for dating fossils and other artifacts. species: Pinus longaeva photo-id: BCP-034 request pricing ![]() | ![]() White Mountains Bristlecone Pine Growth ring records also establish a very accurate record of climate for the areas in which they grow.
