Lodgepole Pines
One of my favorite places is located in the High Uintas near Haystack Lake. My dad's father called this area "God's Country" and I can understand why. The beauty of the area has never ceased to amaze me. I take my children and grandchildren there several times a year, just like my grandfather took my dad my brother and me years ago. These needles went brown because of the pine beetle infestation in the area. My wife and I returned to this spot last year only to find that the entire tree and most of it's neighbors had been killed by the disease.
