The heavy, dense stands are explained by the favorable climatic influences, such as an equably warm temperature, a heavy precipitation, uniformly distributed, and a long grow- ing season. The precipitation varies from only a few inches in southern California to nearly ioo inches on the Olympic peninsula of the north coast. Elevations run up to over 339.
