Sitka Spruce

Sitka Spruce, unlike the much smaller Black Spruce, can reach heights of over 300ft and are found mostly in the wetter southcentral and southeast regions of Alaska. This particular tree is highly valued for its ability to grow rapidly and in locations that have poor soil. Over the years most of the old-growth trees have been harvested but a few 700+ year old trees are known.
