Western white pine was especially common in the area of Palisades Creek, north of Mather Pass, and northward into Yosemite National Park. Five needles per fascicle and long cones and with fairly fragile scales form a distinctive combination. This area lies along Palisade Creek and the Golden Staircase just below Palisade Lakes.

Pinaceae - Mexico
Mexican Weeping Pine, Pino llorón, Patula Pine
Shown: Young, newly formed female cones in spring
"Patula Pine, Pinus patula (Mexican weeping pine, pino llorón in Spanish)(patula Latin = spreading) is a tree native to Mexico. It grows from 24° to 18° North latitude and 1800 to 2700 m above sea level. 30 m tall. It does not stand long periods of temperatures as low as –10°C, but occasionally it resist them and even lower. It is moderately drought tolerant, in this scope is superior than Pinus taeda. Rainfall range is from 750 to 2000 mm annual average, it happens mostly in summer but in a little area of the State of Veracruz on the Sierra Madre Oriental its habitat is rainy year round.
"Planted at high altitudes in Ecuador (3500 m), Bolivia, Colombia (3300m), Kenya, Tanzania, Angola, Zimbabwe, Papua New Guinea, Hawaii (3000 m), in Hawaii it is replacing the native alpine grassland. It is cultivated in at lower altitudes than its origin country: Southern Brazil, South Africa, India, and in the Argentine provinces of Córdoba and San Luis[1]it is planted for forestation purposes for creating forest in lands originally covered by bushland. It has been introduced near sea level : New South Wales, Australia, where it spreads naturally by wind and is very favored because rainfalls are more abundant in summer. Also introduced in New Zealand with commercial purposes is fully naturalized. Cultivated in United Kingdom as ornamental and grows well." (Wikipedia)

This Loblolly Pine (Pinus taeda) is growing on the sandy beach on the bay side of Assateague Island. The bay is salt water which pine trees do not tolorate. It is hard for me to believe that the fresh water lens on the island extends this far under the beach sand. I think this tree is being sustained by the large horizontal (above ground) root that provides fresh water by connecting it to the higher ground inland. The root is easily seen in the photograph. Anyway this is one tough tree and stands out as a survivor. Assateague Island National Seashore, Maryland

Pinus longaeva, along White Mountain Road S of Schulman Grove, White Mountains, Inyo Co., CA, 14 Jul 2015.
Buena vista con el aspecto característico de las ramas de este pino.
He comprobado la presencia de las 3 especies (sylvestris, nigra y pinaster) en esta zona. Predomina el sylvestris, pero no son raros los ejemplares (agrupados o sueltos) de las otras especies.
Limber pine (Pinus flexilis), Pine family (Pinaceae).
Around Lake Mary, Brighton, Utah; elevation 2910 m.
Thanks to Bryant Olsen for the species name corection.
Pine (Pinus, family Pinaceae) reproduction takes two years. At the beginning of year one (shown here), ovulate cones are pollinated, but the female gametophtyes in the cones are not yet mature. The pollen remains in the cone until the beginning of year two, when fertilization occurs, and seeds begin to develop. This specimen of a cultivated European species was photographed May 18, 2007 in Marion County, Ohio, USA.
