June 20, 2021

Pine trees are very common in North America, but there are so many kinds that they’re hard to differentiate. There are over 100 species of pine trees, and lots of them look very similar.

Whether you live somewhere that has lots of pine trees or you’re interested in planting a pine on your property, you’ll need to know which pine tree species you’re looking at. Also, lots of live Christmas trees are pine trees, so you can know what kind of tree you’re putting presents under!

Pine trees come in many different shapes and sizes.

Common Characteristics of Pine Trees

Many pine trees have lots of things in common. From bristlecone pines, Virginia pines, black pines, and longleaf pines, most pine trees have pine cones. There are two kinds of pine cones: cones that pollinate and cones that drop seeds.

The pine cones that make pollen are the smaller of the two, and they contribute to lots of the pollen that’s made every year. The seed cones are larger than the pollen cones. Pine trees have pine needles that combine in groups between two and five to make leaves.

These trees grow new needles every year, so the needle clusters drop after roughly a year. Pine trees are evergreen trees, so they keep their dark green color all year long. Many pine trees have red-brown bark that is made of softwood. Pine is a conifer from the genus Pinus and the family Pinaceae.

1. Western White Pine Tree (aka Pinus monticola)

This type of pine tree can grow up to 100 feet tall with a straight trunk. It makes twigs that are very small and skinny, and there are five needles to every fascicle. Its needles are blue-green in color, and they live on the tree for about three and a half to four years.

The cones this tree produces are both pollen and seed cones. It can be very hard to tell the difference between this pine and the Eastern White Pine tree. However, the needles of the Western White Pine are stiffer than the needles on the other.

Also, the pine cones on this tree are bigger than the pine cones on the other tree. Landscaping is a common use for this type of pine tree. The hardiness zone this tree belongs to is zone three. The tree is native to several different regions.

It’s from the northern Rocky Mountains, Central California, Montana, British Columbia, and the Sierra Nevada. However, it can be planted in many different places due to its hardiness level.

2. Eastern White Pine Tree (aka Pinus strobus)

The Eastern White Pine has lots of different cultivars, including Nana, Macopin, Sea Urchin, Torulosa, Pendula, Alba, and Fastigiata. The needles of this tree come in fascicles of five, and they can grow as long as 13 centimeters. The cylindrical cones that this tree produces are resinous, are pointier at the tip, and are light brown in color.

This tree needs full sun exposure or partial shade to thrive. It needs very fertile and moist soil to grow well, but it can grow in all kinds of soil. The dead, fallen leaves of this tree make the soil very acidic, so it’s hard for other plants to grow around this tree.

Eastern White Pines have a hardiness zone of three. They’re originally from Newfoundland and Manitoba. They were also native to Georgia, Iowa, and everywhere in between.

3. Red Pine Tree (aka Pinus resinosa)

The Red Pine tree is a coniferous evergreen that has red-brown bark. It’s quite short, only growing between 25 and 50 feet, and its branches sprout from the bottom of the trunk to the top. The bark on this pine has fissures, and it’s scaly instead of flaky.

The fascicles come with two needles that are very flexible and grow to be about 15 centimeters long. It grows seed cones that are a deep brown color and fall in the third year of the tree’s life. The botanical name Pinus resinosa comes from the Latin word resinous, and it was named this because the tree contains resin.

It’s from Manitoba and Newfoundland. It’s also from Minnesota, Pennsylvania, and Michigan. It needs sun exposure ranging from full sunlight to partial shade. It belongs in hardiness zone three. When a pine cone first buds on this species of pine tree, it’s roughly the size of a quarter.

Pine needles come in different bundles called fascicles.

4. Austrian Pine Tree (aka Pinus nigra)

The regular size of this tree is between 50 and 60 feet, but it can grow up to 100 feet. The branches sprout fairly close to the bottom of the trunk, and the bark is extremely dark brown. The tree also has buds that are very resinous, and the needles come in groups of two.

The needles last on the tree for about four to eight years. The pine cones for this tree are light brown and can grow up to eight centimeters long. This tree is in hardiness zone four, and it’s only native to southern Europe, Asia Minor, and northwest Africa.

It needs full sun exposure and moist soil. However, this pine tree is very adaptable to other kinds of soil, so it’s not a problem if you don’t have access to that. The Austrian Pine tree comes in several different varieties for landscaping, which include variegated, upright, compact, shrub, and golden-yellow.

5. Ponderosa Pine Tree (aka Pinus ponderosa)

The Ponderosa Pine tree, or the Western Yellow Pine tree, has almost black bark and can grow up to 100 feet tall. The bark has a scaly look to it, and the needles are bundled in either twos or threes. The pine cones have an egg shape, and they usually grow to be about 15 centimeters long.

This type of pine tree is in hardiness zone three, and it’s native to several different areas. It’s from an area that spreads from British Columbia to Mexico, and it’s from another area from Texas to South Dakota. It’s also native to some areas of Oregon.

It needs soil that is moist, drains well, and neutral. This tree is drought-tolerant, so don’t worry if where you live is going through a drought because this pine tree should last through it.

6. Pitch Pine Tree (aka Pinus rigida)

This evergreen grows to be about 70 feet tall, and it has an irregular trunk shape. The bark of this tree is dark brown and scaly, and the bark will turn black once fully mature. The branches are really twisted, and the needles of this tree form in fascicles of three.

The needles are dark green once fully mature, and the pine cones grow in groups of three to five. Also, this tree is resinous like several other kinds of pine trees. The Pitch Pine needs full sunlight exposure and acidic soil. It’s native to many states in the USA, including Maine, Virginia, Ohio, Kentucky, Tennessee, and Georgia.

In terms of landscaping, this tree is usually dwarfed to be used on sites. Another fun fact is that this tree is resistant to fire.

7. Lodgepole Pine Tree (aka Pinus contorta)

Another common name of this pine tree is the shore pine, and it’s fairly small compared to the other pine trees, only reaching about 80 feet tall once fully mature. There are two green needles per fascicle, and they grow to about eight centimeters long.

The pine cones of this tree are seed cones, and they only fall off the tree after the seed does. There are four different subspecies to this pine tree: Shore Pine, Lodgepole Pine, Sierra Lodgepole Pine, and Mendocino White Plains Lodgepole Pine.

The Shore Pine tree is from the coast of the Pacific ocean, ranging from Alaska to northern California. The Lodgepole Pine tree is from southern Alaska to Mexico and South Dakota. This is one of the most widely distributed pine trees in North America.

The Sierra Lodgepole Pine tree has needles that are a little bit wider than the other types in this subspecies. It’s from the Sierra Nevada and the Klamath Mountains. The final subspecies of Pinus contorta is called Mendocino White Plains Lodgepole Pine, and it’s from Mendocino County. It’s one of the only kinds of pine trees that can grow in white sand.

8. Sugar Pine Tree (aka Pinus lambertiana)

This is the tallest species of pine tree at about 200 feet tall! For most of the length of the straight trunk, the branches are scattered. The tree’s bark varies in color depending on how old the tree is. There are five needles per fascicle, and they grow to be about 10 centimeters long.

The pine cones are massive; they can grow to be about 46 centimeters long! The sun exposure this tree needs is between full sunlight and light shade. It’s from hardiness zone six, and it’s from several different regions surrounding California and Oregon.

It’s native to the Cascade Mountains, Sierra Nevada Mountains, western Nevada, and Baja California. It’s named after botanist Aylmer B. Lambert.

9. Mountain Pine Tree (aka Pinus mugo)

The more common name for this tree is Mugo Pine, but it can also be called Mountain Pine. This type of pine tree is very small, and it’s usually wider than it is tall. Its needles grow in pairs, and the branches of the tree begin to sprout at the bottom of the trunk.

The cones of this tree are pollen cones, and they grow to be about five centimeters long. This tree belongs to hardiness zone two, and it’s from the Alps and the Balkans. It’s mostly from the mountainous part of Europe. There are several dwarf species of this tree.

These include Mini Mini, Oregon Jade, Golden Mound, and Mitsch Mini. These are really popular for landscaping purposes.

10. Scots Pine Tree (aka Pinus sylvestris)

Also called the Scotch Pine, this tree is very irregular in shape and grows to be about 60 feet tall. The bark on this tree is more orange than brown, and it’s very flaky. There are only two needles per bundle; they are blue-green in color and about eight centimeters long.

The cones on this tree are asymmetrical in shape, have short stalks, and they are the same length as the leaves. This type of pine tree was one of the first pine trees to come to North America, and it’s been in New England for so long that it’s become naturalized there.

It’s the only pine tree that’s native to the UK, coming from Scotland and Norway. It’s been distributed to Spain, Siberia, and western Asia. Scots Pine trees can grow on many kinds of soil, so don’t worry about what kind you have available.

Although, it grows better in acidic soil. The main thing to focus on when it comes to soil is to make sure that the soil drains very well. Scots Pine trees grow differently in the United States and Europe. In Europe, the tree grows very straight and has very quality wood. In the United States, it’s hardly ever straight and has very poor wood quality.

11. Slash Pine Tree (aka Pinus elliottii)

Sometimes referred to as the Swamp Pine, this tree’s branches don’t begin until a good length up the trunk of the tree. The bark color ranges from gray to orange-brown, and needles can be bundled in groups of two or three. The needles are very stiff and dark green.

The cones on this tree retain a cone shape, and they are a shiny red-brown color. There is another type of this tree that grows in South Florida, and it differs from the regular only slightly. The wood on this tree is heavier and harder, and that’s the only real difference.

This type is called Pinus elliottii variety densa, and it’s not planted commercially like the other Pinus elliottii. This pine tree is native to the Florida Keys, southern South Carolina, and southeastern Louisiana. The main area that this tree is from is the southwestern United States. It’s from hardiness zone eight, and it was named for South Carolinian botanist Stephen Elliott.

12. Loblolly Pine Tree (aka Pinus taeda)

The Loblolly Pine tree can grow to a height of 90 feet tall. The needles grow in groups of three, and they’re very slender and dark green. The pine cones of this tree grow in pairs, and they are brown in color. The tree looks almost like an oval because the branches don’t begin to sprout until a good length up the trunk.

This pine tree is native to New Jersey all the way down to Florida and some parts of Texas. It belongs to hardiness zone six, and it requires full sun exposure. The soil you plant the Loblolly Pine in should be acidic, moist, and well-draining. It’s not drought-tolerant, so it needs some form of moisture.

Sugar Pine trees are very tall.

13. Jack Pine Tree (aka Pinus banksiana)

Also called the Scrub Pine, this tree is the shortest of the pine trees at 50 feet tall. The bark of this tree is flaky, but that’s not strange with pine trees. The needle clusters on this pine species only have two needles each, and the needles have very sharp tips.

The needles are between dark green and yellow-green. The cones on these trees are seed cones, and they fall off the tree between 10 and 20 years. This tree doesn’t look like many other trees in the species. This pine tree is from a couple of different places.

It’s native to a region that spreads from the Arctic Circle to New York. It’s actually the most northern native pine tree that there is. It’s been distributed all across Canada, and it’s the territorial tree of the Northwest Territory of Canada.

This pine tree is from USDA hardiness zone two, and it grows best in sandy soils. The soil should be acidic, but it’s fine if it isn’t. The tree can adapt to very bad soils to grow in more places than other pine trees. It needs full sunlight exposure. The common name Jack Pine comes from a well-known botanist Aylmer B. Lambert.

How to Take Your Own Internet to Outdoor Events

Published

October 18, 2025

Jonas Muthoni

You’ve got the permits, the lineup, the stage design, and the crowd — but when it comes to WiFi, outdoor events can turn from dream festivals to data dead zones in minutes. Reliable connectivity is now as essential as power or sound. Whether it’s a music festival streaming to TikTok, a food fair using mobile POS systems, or a corporate brand activation relying on live dashboards, the internet connection is what keeps the gears turning.

But the truth is this: counting on venue WiFi at a large outdoor event is a gamble. Hundreds of devices fighting for the same bandwidth can jam up the signal before the headliner gets on stage. Public networks only have one backhaul connection, so your production crew, security cameras, and vendors could all be fighting with concert-goers streaming YouTube in the crowd.

So, if your aspiration is to keep the event chugging along like clockwork, the genius move is to bring your own internet — designed specifically for the occasion, private, and controlled by your event staff.

Why Venue WiFi Fails When Crowds Arrive

Let’s start with the numbers. According to Cisco’s 2024 Annual Internet Report, the average person now connects four to six devices at live events — phones, wearables, tablets, scanners, and streaming gear. Multiply that by 5,000 or 50,000 people, and you’re looking at a digital traffic jam.

Outdoor locations have a very minimal amount of wired infrastructure. The majority utilize older systems or common fiber links, which were not designed for thousands of users at once. When the signal is over-stretched, latency increases, access points fail, and the network grinds to a halt.

For event organizers, this is not only inconvenient — it’s a safety and revenue gamble. POS terminals won’t work. QR ticket scanners crawl. Even backup communication programs freeze.

The Smarter Solution: Creating Your Own Network

Constructing a stand-alone network for an outside event may seem daunting, but technology has made it relatively achievable. Instead of relying on one provider or tower, professional crews now use several sources of the internet to deliver redundancy and stability.

Outdoor WiFi specialists use multi-carrier cellular bonding, satellite uplinks, and WAN smoothing to keep traffic consistent even when one source is down. It’s a lot like having several water pipes feed one tank — if one pipe gets stopped up, others keep the flow consistent.

The best configuration depends on three variables:

Location: Urban park, remote valley, rooftop, or open desert all have different signal profiles and line-of-sight challenges.
Bandwidth Demand: Are you providing power to a 50-person AV crew or streaming to a million online viewers?
Duration: A day-long music festival versus a week-long brand tour will change the way you plan power, cooling, and redundancy.

Professional crews will often pre-deploy with site surveys — gauging carrier strength, spectrum congestion, and potential sources of interference such as LED walls or nearby broadcast towers.

Lessons from the Field

Outdoor WiFi would be a niche specialty, but in today’s world it’s simply part and parcel of modern event production. In the last decade, TradeShowInternet’s teams have helped support hundreds of big outdoor festivals and corporate activations, and there have been a few hard-won lessons along the way.

There was the time crews climbed a half mile up the flank of a Santa Fe mountain with over 200 pounds of gear to put in a solar-powered relay antenna for Red Bull’s Guinness World Record truck jump. A second assignment involved digging cable trenches through snake country in Los Angeles for Christian Dior’s fashion show.

When Univision taped La Banda on the beach in Miami, technicians climbed a 20-foot truss into a lightning storm to raise antennas. These are probably war stories, but they represent reality: each outdoor location introduces its own wildcards. Wind, weather, terrain, and local RF noise all push the limits of planning.

The lesson? Experience is as important as gear. Knowing when to use additional directional antennas, when to flip to satellite failover, or how to protect a router from 100-degree heat isn’t something you can read in a manual.

The Technical Side: How Redundant Networks Keep Events Alive

This is how seasoned outdoor internet crews engineer reliability into temporary networks:

Multi-Carrier Bonding: Equipment stitches together data from multiple cellular carriers (Verizon, AT&T, T-Mobile, etc.) to maximize bandwidth and fill signal gaps.

WAN Smoothing: Packets are duplicated and relayed on secondary paths to prevent noticeable drops or hiccups in live streams.
Satellite Integration: Especially when out at remote sites or in mountain events where cell phone reception is spotty.
5G + LTE Hybrid Units: Combining newer high-bandwidth 5G networks with more predictable LTE offers well-rounded throughput.
Portable Mesh Access Points: Create overlapping areas of WiFi that eliminate dead spots across vast grounds or over tented locations.
Power & Weather Protection: Ranging from Pelican case enclosures to solar power solutions, all of which ensure uptime regardless of adverse weather conditions.

It’s a multi-layer strategy — not one device straining the load, but several working in tandem to handle bandwidth, robustness, and coverage.

Why Your Vendors, AV Staff, and Guests All Need Their Own Network Layer

External events normally have three distinct user communities that require the internet:

Production and AV Personnel – operation of live feeds, mixing panels, lighting, and communications programs.
Vendors and POS Devices – card transaction processing, QR menus, and inventory software.
Guests and Media – posting, uploading, or taking part in brand interaction activity.

Mixing them all on one open WiFi is risky. It provides security vulnerabilities and causes too much congestion. The preferred method is network segmentation, creating separate virtual networks that prioritize mission-critical traffic (production, POS, security cameras) and restrict non-mission-critical use like social browsing.

This is exactly how professional outdoor WiFi & Internet solution companies like TradeShowInternet build event systems. They design bespoke topologies that match the unique demands of every event, whether a food festival, marathon, or big corporate activation.

Budgeting and Planning: What Organizers Should Know

According to EventMB’s 2024 Event Technology Report, 73% of event planners say maintaining a reliable connection is important to attendee happiness, yet less than half have a standalone internet budget in place upfront while planning. That’s a recipe for last-minute scrambling.

For all to run smoothly, the network plan needs to be created alongside stage design and power planning — not an afterthought.

Some planning advice:

Start early: Conduct site surveys at least 30 days ahead of the event.
Prioritize wired backbones: Use fiber or Ethernet in production areas whenever possible.
Segregate guest WiFi: Utilize bandwidth caps or sponsored captive portals to control usage.
Redundancy: Cellular + satellite bonding is well worth the investment for mission-critical space.
Post-event review: Collect performance data to inform next year’s plan.

Real-World Use Cases

Outdoor connectivity is not just for music festivals. It’s a necessity for:

Marathons and triathlons – for timing chips, live maps, and emergency co-ordination.
Outdoor conferences or summits – where executives require office-grade internet to make presentations.
Food truck festivals and markets – all vendors need POS access.
Film and TV productions – production villages rely on low-latency connections for uploads.
Races and motorsport events – telemetry, live scoring, and media streaming.

Each of these environments needs a different trade-off among coverage area, upload speed, and mobility.

Why Experience Matters for Outdoor Internet Installations

Each outdoor location is unique. Trees, humidity, metal buildings, even bodies of water can affect wireless performance. Having individuals who’ve done hundreds of installations means fewer surprises and faster repairs when something unexpected happens.

That’s where TradeShowInternet, a leading outdoor WiFi & Internet solution company, comes in. The company has built up networks on deserts, beaches, helipads, mountain ridges, and pop-up brand villages — keeping organizers, vendors, and AV teams connected wherever the event is hosted.

October 17, 2025

Jonas Muthoni

A concert in the canyon. A film night under desert stars. A bustling waterfront food festival with 10,000 guests. Across the country, outdoor events are turning parks, coastlines, forests, and fields into memorable destinations. But there’s one service now as essential as power, permits, and porta-potties: outdoor event WiFi.

Whether for ticket scanning, mobile POS systems, sponsor activations, or live-streaming performances, WiFi for outdoor events has become the invisible support that keeps everything running. Without it, payments stall, communication falters, and digital engagement stops.

Why Outdoor Event WiFi Is Mission-Critical

The outdoor events sector, from farmers’ markets to endurance races, is growing quickly. Allied Market Research predicts global festival revenues will exceed $50B by 2030. These venues offer unique charm, but they also pose a challenge: a lack of built-in internet infrastructure.

“Outside doesn’t mean offline,” says Emma Castillo, a production manager for festivals, film nights, and open-air corporate launches. “We rely on temporary internet for outdoor events to manage our security communications, allow vendors to keep selling, and ensure our livestreams don’t drop.”

Cellular service can struggle with the demands of thousands of devices. Some remote locations may not have any service at all. That’s where outdoor event WiFi solutions come in—portable, scalable, and designed for unpredictable weather.

How Outdoor Internet Keeps Events Moving

Today’s outdoor events rely on connectivity in ways that go far beyond letting guests post on social media:

Mobile POS & Cashless Payments – No signal means lost revenue for vendors.
RFID & Access Control – Real-time validation at gates and VIP areas.
Streaming & Social Content – From TikTok reels to sponsor livestreams.
Sponsor Engagement – QR contests, AR activations, and digital signage updates.
Safety & Logistics – Staff communication, emergency alerts, GPS tracking.

A recent Event Manager Blog study found 63% of sponsors now require guaranteed internet access before committing. Attendees want it too; more than half say connectivity is a key factor in their event satisfaction.

Outdoor Event WiFi Solutions in Action: “Lights on the Lake”

In June, the lakeside town of Lakeshore hosted a three-day open-air film festival. The views were stunning, but no wired internet was available, and mobile service barely worked.

The technical crew set up:

Multi-carrier 5G bonding for vendor and guest networks
Long-range weatherproof access points covering the pier and food court
A private secure network for organizers and emergency staff
A satellite uplink for backup

The festival processed thousands of transactions, streamed Q&A sessions with international filmmakers, and even operated a live voting app without a single connectivity failure.

Industry Perspective: Connectivity as a Core Utility

According to WiFit founder Matt Cicek, changes in event technology priorities have been significant:

“Five years ago, internet at an outdoor event was seen as a nice-to-have. Now, it’s as essential as running water and electricity. From safety coordination to sponsor returns, there’s too much at stake to leave it to chance.”

The Future of Temporary Internet for Outdoor Events

As events become more complex, WiFi for outdoor events from service providers like WiFit will play an even larger role. Expect advancements like:

Solar-powered network kits for sustainable operations
AI-managed bandwidth that adjusts to real-time crowd size
Edge computing for instant AR and interactive attractions

For event planners, the message is clear: the quality of your internet connection is as important as your stage, lighting, or sound system. The next time you’re booking a venue, remember—the crowd may be watching the performers, but they’re also looking at their screens. They expect both to work perfectly.
