Sorry about the gigantic picture

One of the most distinctive features of limber pine is the large amount of sap that accumulates on the cones and the relatively short needles that occur in groups of 3-5. Understand that the cones of the Balsam Fir also accumulate sap but (obviously) is a fir. Feel free (anyone) to correct/add on to this.
