High stand density around a large sugar pine contributes to decreased tree vigor and influences behavior of mountain pine beetles.

Management activities that promote and maintain pine vigor minimize this risk. Thinning stands with sugar or western white pine components or creating desirable spacing around individual five-needle pines within...
