Key to the Trees of Logan Canyon

 

Are the alternate leaves simple, or with many leaves close together on short "spur" shoots?







Simple leaf
Are the alternate leaves pinnately compound (like a feather) the fruit a bright orange-red pome (multi-seeded and apple-like)? Hint: this is usually shrubby but can be tree-sized. It is a Greene mountainash (Sorbus scopulina); not a true ash.
