  • Like any member of the maple family, the winged seeds of the vine maple develop in pairs, which will dry, split, and "helicopter" to the ground on the wind where some of them will take root as part of the next generation. These seeds were photographed<br />
 on Larch Mountain in Northern Oregon.

    Autumn Red Vine Maple
  • One of my favorite trees to photograph at high elevations in the Cascade Mountains in the Pacific Northwest in the fall, the vine maple in the springtime is equally gorgeous with new leaves and flowers. This one was photographed by Gold Creek Pond high atop Washington's Snoqualmie pass on a late June afternoon.
