Resin glands are visible in the third photo as a dark area in the middle of some leaves. Those glands apparently are not obvious in the other native juniper in this area, J. osteosperma.

As far as I know, this tree is the largest of the Bob Adams Juniper Knoll grove (DBH = 261 cm, 8.5 ft. - derived from circumference = 820 cm)
I'd name this tree Bob, for Robert Adams, but it's a girl. He has been a kind and generous juniper expert.
I've dubbed this rocky prominence the Bob Adams Juniper Knoll, which has a grove of several dozen impressive junipers.

Tree on the left is J. osteosperma, tree on the right is J. scopulorum.
From each tree, a sample was checked with a 40x scope to confirm osteo = leaves with denticulate margins and scop = leaf margins entire, not denticulate.

The Bennet Juniper. Finally made the pilgrimage and the effort was well worth it. On the dirt road in I passed the staging area that I use to help move cattle in the summer, never knowing this giant lay just up a little higher.

I've been noticing that cone and bark characteristics vary quite a bit in Jeffrey and Ponderosa pines. Most descriptions say Jeffrey cone prickles are recrurved or turned in, thus, gentle Jeffrey and prickly ponderosa; but check this out.
