Dade County Pine

Tall, skinny, flexible, and part of the fire-forest of the high pine rocklands that used to dominate Miami but have been reduced to around 1% of their former range outside of Everglades National Park. But inside the park they stand strong and here is one example of a great South Florida Slash Pine. Great ecosystem to explore and if you get the chance to check it out in real life, lots of fun to adventure through
