More About Pila. About the resort. Pila itself is relatively small and quiet, with a friendly atmosphere. As with the rest of the Aosta Valleyâs resorts, it tends to get busier on the weekends, when visitors from Milan and Turin head to the slopes.
Cedar trees can grow to heights of over 120 feet. Some species grow to 180 feet. They have a light colored, spicy scented wood.
During good seed years, heavy cones crops can be mistaken for browning foliage. Cedar is one of the few trees that can reproduce by layering. Mature cedar usually grows to 40 or 50 in HEIGHT with DIAMETERS up to 2 or 3 feet. On wet, POOR SITES, cedar will not get much taller than 25 feet and diameters will rarely exceed 5 or 6 inches. The development is often best on UPLAND SITES, especially on the limestone soils along Lake Michigan. Cedar can live to be several hundred years old, one of our longest-lived U.P. tree species. The wood is rot-resistant and, as a result, has commonly been used for fence posts, corduroy roads, and saunas. Cedar log homes are becoming increasingly popular.
