Engelmann spruce needles are 2-3 inches long and are a light green colour. The bark is thin and scaly, and the cones are about 2-4 inches long.

Engelmann spruce grows in cool, moist climates at high elevations.

It is best to see Engelmann spruce in the wild from September to November when the needles are their brightest green colour.
