Treeline

Pikas' rocky habitat — found across various mountain ranges in Canada and the U.S. but exclusively above the treeline — is expected to slowly be lost as the climate warms and forests expand to higher elevations.

The Department of Forest and Park Services (DoFPS) conducted the study, which shows how the country’s treeline has experienced a substantial elevation change over the years.

There's a growing gap in the treeline outside Grande Prairie.

Perhaps I’d be stuck above the treeline, picking my way over wobbly rocks, forever.

The Professional Logging Contractors of the Northeast (PLC), an organization of over 200 small family businesses (including Treeline), provides a voice for the timber harvesting and trucking companies within the industry.

One of Maine’s most underrated hikes is the Traveler Mountain Loop, near the park’s north entrance, which stays above treeline for more than half of its 11 miles.

But the real beauty is in the details: the way that mist slowly creeps in around you, or how rays of sunlight pierce through a treeline.

Down the hill, at the treeline, other neighbors are piping their raw waste into a shallow pit, through which runs a slim piece of tubing that carries drinking water back up to their trailers.

The two trucks slipped on black ice and skidded into the treeline.

While on scene of the first motor vehicle accident, a Ford SUV went off the roadway and into a treeline before coming to rest, the single occupant /driver had no injuries.

Substantial mountain areas above the treeline would eventually be wooded.
