BI*RI, OT re alaskan trees: Northwest Alaska is permafrost, and the climax forest is blueberry bushes, about 2 feet tall. It was 35 below a few days ago. Inhale deeply and your lungs hurt. In April, when it gets up to 10 above, it feels really warm. My trees (apple, pear, dwarf cherry) are in Anchorage, where we now live. Much warmer here, about like Helsinki or Duluth. The main threat to small trees is moose, who move down into town when the snow gets deep in the Chugach Mountains. Yesterday morning, when I got the paper, there were moose-tracks circling all the trees I planted last summer, with broken-off branches.
