Key to the Trees of Logan Canyon

 

Are needles clustered in twos and/or threes, and the cone scales thick and with or without prickles?



Needles clustered in threes and twos
Are the needles mainly clustered in fives and the cones 3" to 10" long, the scales without prickles? Clue: the young branches are very flexible. It is a limber pine (Pinus flexilis).
