Although I forgot where it stands.
But I think it was in some national-park.

Northern Spruce. Or Picea abies in latin.
Mostly because it's what covers 95% of the forest where I live.
Makes great firewood, great building material, smells good and they look good. 10/10 tree.

>>722873311
Sounds very similar to black spruce. Or maybe they're the same tree.

>>722873252
in the us states along the gulf of mexico

there are log called "sinker cypress". they are trees that get so big, the mud they are anchored in can't hold them and the fall over. the mud preserves them. there are guys who salvage these logs and sell them for a premium. some are hundreds of years old, and the fell into the mud hundreds of years ago. :)

>>722873559
coolness

>>722873401
As far as I can tell it's pretty much the same tree yes. One of the few tree species that continue growing even in temperatures down to -50 degrees Celsius.

So why am I lurking this thread exactly?

>>722873674
lumberfag here.

there are also guys up north who salvage old sinker logs from the great lakes. lumber guys used to float them from wilderness to sawmills...some would sink. the icy cold waters of the great lakes preserved the logs. i've seen sinker hard maple, cherry, and walnut lumber go for near $100/board foot. it's some of the most beautiful hardwood you'll ever lay eyes on.

>>722873848
NHLA does not differentiate between spruce, doug fir, or hemlock. nor do they differentiate between pecan or hickory.

>>722873983
Good to know. Here in northern Sweden it's pretty much the only tree we got. Too cold for anything else really.

>>722871420
Underrated post

>>722873890
There's an industry for float wood in BC, too. I met a guy with a mad max looking boat who salvaged logs that fell off of barges and mills them himself.

Can someone tell me what the tree just right to my house is? Always figured it was just a spruce but in the last two years it has been developing these light brown/yellow seeds as you can see on the pic during the early summer. It was almost dead when I bought the house.

>>722874326
Onterrible. Looking at that pic it could be, though. Skinny as hell for a white pine.

>>722874732
oh, i'm not a lumberjack.

i buy and sell hardwood lumber.

fun fact for the day: hardwoods are classified as such if they shed their leaves or not. the term hardwood has nothing to do with the density of the wood. :)

Hard maple is pretty hard.

>>722875279
it's a deciduous tree, making it a "hardwood" and yes, it's very hard. i have a cutting board made of hard maple.

>>722875129
I see. But it seems white spruce only grows in northern America, but then again my google skills suck. Meh it's a tree. Good enough.

>>722875604
Yeah, I've only ever done Canadian tree species.

>>722875692
Ah, Canada's nature and climate is pretty similar to ours here in northern Scandinavia. Probably some related tree species.

>>722875815
There are. Notably fur and spruce.

Does the tree have "cornflake like" bark?

>>722875995
Yes it does. When I bought the house the tree was completely barren. The bark was peeling off and everything. For some reason it started growing again before I chopped it down.

If you burn pine, plan on your chimney burning down. Pine is dirty as hell.
