Funny thing is I was certain it was going to be a mushroom at the top. The mycellium can spread nearly indefinitely and in the event the biomass starts dying the fruits are dropping so many spores that a new colony will start. Fungus is just one of the most proliferating species I the world, the cloning trees are interesting because they have taken the same method to grow, I had no idea those were all part of one root system.

[@karliebellatrixyoung6359]

The answer for why there are all these big organisms in the western United States is basically that the northern pacific provides a unique opportunity to collect moisture, and the Sierras and Rockies force a lot of that moisture out of the clouds as they roll off of the pacific. The second largest single trunk tree species lives at about the same relative latitude in the Andes.
