Cones were very similar to Pinus washoensis, resembling miniature Jeffrey pine cones, but prickles were definitely outcurved, and foliage was yellowish green. Good Pinus jeffreyi is mixed in the same stand.

This appears to be a small, isolated relict stand of these yellow pines, and may be in the process of winking out, although no obvious mortality or disease was noted.
