* = Not Offical Big Tree measurements, but larger than the smallest Arizona Champion Tree.
A champion must be 5 points larger than the next closest or they all (to -5 points) will be called co-champions

Points for each tree is determined by adding the:
"circumference in inches @ 4.5 feet above the base";
& "height in feet (base to tip/top)";
& "one-half of 2 crown spreads in feet".
(Crown spread = average width, i.e. one-half of 2 widest measurements at about 90 degrees).
