	About Sugar Pine cones from Cascade Pine Cones
		Sugar pine is the tallest of all pines, often reaching heights of 61m (200ft.) and widths in excess of 3.5 m.
		Sugar pine can be identified from a distance by the open, narrow, and flat-topped crown with long horizontal branches that, from a distance, can be seen drooping at the ends due to the weight of the cones clustered at the ends of the branches (Kinloch and Scheuner, 1990).
		Sugar pine is also easily distinguished by its silvery-lined bluish green needles, clustered five to a fascicle and 7-10 cm in length with several rows of obvious stomates on both sides of the needle.

	Sugar Pine - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
		The Sugar Pine (Pinus lambertiana; family Pinaceae) is a species of pine that occurs in the mountains of Oregon and California in the western United States, and Baja California in northwestern Mexico; specifically the Sierra Nevada, the Cascade Range, the Coast Ranges, and the Sierra San Pedro Martir.
		Sugar Pine is notable for having the longest cones of any conifer, mostly 25-50 cm long, exceptionally up to 66 cm long.
		A high proportion of the Sugar Pine has been killed by the blister rust, particularly in the northern part of the species' range (further south in central and southern California, the summers are too dry for the disease to spread easily).
