It is found from the northern limit of trees in northwestern Alaska through the western United States and into northern Mexico. Quaking aspen is an aggressive pioneer species that frequently colonizes burned sites, making it an important component of many western ecosystems.
Aspen reproduces primarily by means of root suckers produced from buds on shallow roots. Over much of its western range, quaking aspen is a small to medium-sized, fast-growing, and generally short-lived tree. The species reaches its most splendid development in the Rocky Mountains of southern Colorado and northern New Mexico, where some individual trees can attain diameters of up to .9 m (3 ft) and a height of 30.5 m (100 ft), and often live for more than 150 years. However, average trees are considerably smaller and many stands begin to deteriorate after 80 years.
Long appreciated for its esthetic and shade tree value and its importance for wildlife, aspen is also capable of excellent growth and high yields and thus is an important commercial timber species.
