notes It is very difficult to separate this from Abies lasiocarpa but in studying other images from the same tree it appears to me to be Picea englemannii as identified on original slide.

| Reviewer's comments: | | | | "Agree with photographer's ident; Picea cones are erect at first, only becoming pendulous toward maturity; shoot, leaf structure and bud scales are also typical Picea." |
