Still working on my tree ID skills. Is this a Jeffrey pine? This species is all over the coast near San Francisco, whatever it is.

I would bite into it and if it yells "ouch" it is a Jeffrey but if all you taste is pine then it is a pine... whether it is both a Jeffrey and pine I have no idea.

Crazy looking tree though.

i’m not real familiar with them, but for a jeffrey pine, it should have 3 needles per bundle. long needles.

The needles are indeed in bundles of 3!

Howdy,
I think Knobcone pine. Needles, bundles of 3. up to 5 inches long. The knobcone pine, cones are attached to the branches, stay on tree all year, open when heated as in fire. I think I saw cones attached to the branches in the photos.

Jeffrey pine, needles, bundles of 3, 5-10 inches long

Randal, I think you're right on the money. I've been looking up knobcone pines and they look a lot like the guys around here. THANK YOU!

Jeffrey pine bark and twigs emit a pleasant pineapple/vanilla scent when crushed or peeled as opposed to the turpentine scent of ponderosa and most other pines.
