The image shows a large tree growing on a rock outcropping in a marsh. This is an Eastern White Pine (Pinus strobus) – a large conifer which flourishes throughout the Adirondack Mountains in upstate New York. It is the tallest of our native evergreens, often reaching 130 feet in height and four feet in diameter. This species is considered to be one of the most valuable trees in eastern North America. It is one of the signature trees of the Adirondacks.
