Eastern White Pine (Pinus strobus)

On this point of interest you will see a large Eastern White Pine overlooking the dirt road. Eastern White Pine can grow in various enviornments, however it prefers to grow in cool, humid areas with well drained soil. I incorperated this species in the tour because they are very common throughout the Northeast and contribute to small mammal and other wildlife throughout the winter months. It is also a fast growing tree and can grow quickly in early successional forests.
