26 inch DBH. On a friends mountain property, there are around 25 that size, all in a grove. They dont even have limbs til 50 ft due to growing in a closed canopy forest. I would guestimate 70 feet or so high, hard for me to guess that though.

I have about 25 randomly distributed trees (so far that I know of), these are in the 18" DBH category. 3 are in my back yard.
The rest are further back on the property.
then I have hundreds in the overgrown fields that go from 4", 6", 8" caliper
