Tawny Point sits in background to the left. This site is in the Tyndall Creek area south of Forester Pass.

Monterey Pine (Pinaceae) - Alice Holt, Farnham, Surrey.
The genus Pinus (Pines) has leaves (needles) which have shoots with bunches of 2, 3, or 5 leaves, each bunch enclosed in a sheath of papery bracts. The number of needles helps identification, but occasionally there are bunches with a nonstandard number of leaves, so several shoots need to be examined. Cones are mostly more or less egg-shaped (ovoid) with hard, woody scales.
The leaves of P. radiata are in bunches of 3, bright green, narrow and 10-15cm long; cones are on long stalks and very swollen on one side, forming dense, persistent back-pointing clusters with scales lacking spines; bark greyish- to reddish-brown and fissured.

Whitebark pine is widespread in the Teton Range at the upper elevation including on the high benches and shelve and ledges on rock faces where it co-dominates with subalpine fir (Abies lasiocarpa). During the summer of 2016, the abundant cone crop was apparently produced high in the tree and these were foraged in part by squirrels. This squirrel made a 3 minute round trip from high in a whitebark pine to a cone/seed cache and this all day long.
Pinus edulis, the state tree of New Mexico, is common to the Taos area. Perhaps most similar to the Mexican Pinus cembroides in having mostly 2 (3) needles per fascicle, the leaves of Pinus edulis are over 1 mm in width. This region that descends in elevation from Taos to Española transitions out of the expanses of sagebrush steppe and is essentially devoid of Bromus tectorum. This site lies along highway 68 just to the southwest of Taos, Taos County, New Mexico, about where the highway and the Rio Grande meet.
