Trees to 46m; trunk to 0.8m diam., mostly straight and evenly tapering, or at or above timberline reduced to shrub form by wind shear; crown usually conic at maturity. Bark gray- to red-brown, not evidently furrowed, separating into loose plates. Branches mostly horizontally spreading, not ascending at tip. Leaves (4–)5–8cm × 1–2(–3)mm, yellow-green, apex narrowly acute to short-acuminate. Seed cones maturing in 2 years, then shedding seeds or variously serotinous, long-persistent, strongly asymmetric, mostly recurved, seldom whorled, mostly in 2s or solitary, mid and lower apophyses mostly much domed.
Habitat: Low to high montane forests, often to timberline
Elevation: 0–3500m

Alta., B.C., N.W.T., Sask., Yukon, Alaska, Colo., Idaho, Mont., Oreg., S.Dak., Utah, Wash., Wyo.
Discussion
Pinus contorta var. latifolia is fire successional. It is the most wide-ranging and commercially utilized variety. Its poor self-pruning character makes it less desirable for lumber but adequate for mine timbers, fences, and pulpwood.
Lodgepole pine (Pinus contorta var. latifolia) is the provincial tree of Alberta.
