Besides the Larix laricina in the eastern U.S. there are Larix occidentalis and Larix lyallii in the west. I have not yet seen Larix laricina in the fall either.
Soft green in the summer, and shining gold in the fall. An autumn walk through a grove of backlit, glowing golden larches is an experience to be treasured.
Thanks, these are an amazing tree to see in the fall. At least for the 2 western species in North America although they can be abundant where they are found, they have a fairly limited range.

Re: oh boyThe larches are also my favorite, I have started planning fall trips the last few years just to see them. Thanks for the pictures.

No Larix laricina in OhioSeveral of these line Sandy Stream Pond and would thus complement Turner Mtn. in Baxter Park, but I have never been there in the fall.
