If its Sierra (western) juniper it is well out of its range. California and common juniper are both in coastal CA, but has anyone ever seen them form into trees like this? I have not, nor could I find any pictures online that resembled the form these do.
I had a hard time keying the leaves I took, obviously seeing the cones would have helped, but alas no berries in the winter. Any ideas?
