Again we were passing by 100 and 100 for miles on mainly Birch Trees and young Pine wood through the wideness of the Taiga and Tundra.
The land is densely covered with large spruce and birch trees and has been cleared around the cabins.

Birch trees attract the diminutive long-tailed tit that is a delight to watch as it feeds on insects and seeds.
Mature white birch and pine trees surround the building and the grounds provide an ideal setting to enjoy a nature walk.

There are no trees on the north slope of the Brooks Range but extensive spruce/birch forests thrive on the southern side of the mountains.
Birch is one of the first trees to grow on bare soil and thus it births the entire forest.
Birch trees have simple (whole - not divided into separate pieces) leaves arranged alternately on the branch, with toothed and sometimes lobed edges.

Birch is rapidly taking over rare heathland in the county and the only way to re-establish the heather and other wildflowers is to get rid of it by cutting the scrub trees down.
