A tree, usually from forty to fifty and rarely eighty feet in height, with a trunk three or four feet in diameter, which is generally naked at the base for about one quarter of its length, but sometimes is clothed to the ground with branches. These are remarkably remote, elongated and pendulous below, with short stout pendent or often eioct lateral branchlets, and, short and ascending above, forming an open broad-based symmetrical pyramidal head. The bark is from three to six inches in thickness, dark reddish brown, and deeply divided into great broad rounded ridges which are covered with thick closely appressed scales. The winter-buds are ovate, acute, usually not more than an eighth of an inch in length
