Pinus
These pine cones are gigantic. Holy cow! Reminds me of the time I regretted driving over a gray pine cone. So, I wondered about the relative sizes of Coulter vs. gray pine cones, even though Wikipedia says, "Coulter pines produce the largest cones of any pine tree species." I found this handy pine cone comparison on Tree Identification blog. It looks like Coulter is longer, while gray is wider, and both are huge and heavy. Chris told me he had a Coulter pine drop on his shoulder once. He said it beat him up pretty badly. Ouch.
