Lake Tahoe Fun Facts: Sugar Pine Cones
The Sugar Pine produces the longest pine cones in the world, reaching up to two feet long and weighing up to a whopping 2 pounds. Since the 1800's, logging and fire suppression dramatically decreased the sugar pines in the Tahoe Basin. Thanks to your support, the Sugar Pine Foundation and UC - Davis, reforestation of the sugar pines is underway. Watch where you park, pine cones like to fall in the Autumn.
