Our Name

The Bristlecone Pine (Pinus Aristata) is the oldest known tree species in the world. Found only in scattered, arid mountain regions of six western states of America, the Bristlecone thrives in the harsh environments found at elevations above 10,000 feet where little vegetation can survive. While the average age of the bristlecone is about 1,000 years, several have been found to be well over 4,000 years old.

Bristlecone Advisors’ namesake stands as a clear metaphor for our philosophy and mission. With our firm roots deeply planted in a service (as opposed to sales) model, we bring the highest level of independent thinking to bear in each facet of our client offerings. This combination of institutional quality work within a boutique setting differentiates Bristlecone Advisors and will result in uncommon longevity.
