This tree was at a rest stop on I-5 between Yreka and Sacramento in December 2009, I have never been able to identify it.
For those who don't read comments: Laurie has id'd this as a Chinese Pistache and gives this reference: http://cambreenotes.com/chinese-pistache-pistachio-tree-and-berries/
Thanks for your help Laurie.
It was covered with these red seed pods.

Could it be a Chinese Pistache? Looks like this: http://cambreenotes.com/chinese-pistache-pistachio-tree-and-berries/
Hi Del,
I have one like this in my back yard. It is a tree that looses most of its leaves over a very short period, and then the lovely berries are left.
What an unusual tree! You have the most amazing foliage in California.
