Name That Tree

Everybody should know this tree -- I'm pretty sure it is the biggest one along the road. I'd guess it's over 200 feet tall! It looks like a Douglas Fir and I'll bet it was alive around the time the settlers arrived. Its somewhat crooked stance may explain why it wasn't cut down along with all the other old growth back then. I haven't a clue what it would tell me if I spoke tree.
