Is this Douglas fir?

The hemlock on mine land is red just under the bark. Use an axe or just saw a little bit of the bark off with a chain saw.

Thanks guys!  Grabbing some branches was the only thing left to try, but I still couldn't get Hemlock.  Nothing else fit.

Sharp needles are the key to Spruce. Bark looks like our Western Spruce. (Picea Glauca x Englemanii)

I'm gonna chime in again and say spruce - of some sort.  The pic looking up the tree with the scaly bark is very typical. The needles look pointed to me, whereas the hemlocks I'm familiar with (western region) the Western Hemlock and the Mountain Hemlock, have rounded ends and for lack of a better term the ends of the branches have a "softer" look. Those needles/branches look stiff.  And finally the cones are too large - for a hemlock.  That said, could there be significant differences between the sub-species of Hemlock to account for these variations?

Looks like more than one species for sure. Balsam Fir and spruce in the top photo of post #21 and spruce below, which doesn't include black, judging from cones. Probably red and white because the tree shown with the shot of the crown from under it looks like smaller limb diameters than any white spruce growing on field that I've seen. And those red spruce limbs are very tough for being small diameter. Any nubs on the branches you see is the pulvinus of the needle where it was held on spruce. If they are bud like than they could be fir pollen cones. The bark shown is not on a fir. First photos in the beginning post is spruce. Balsam fir cones won't even be on the tree now, they fall apart in the fall when ripe and leave the axis pointing straight up.
