Where Are All the Trees?

I’m a big fan of trees, and this map shows every tree in the U.S. (if you look close enough):

The full map is said to have an incredible scale: 4 pixels for every acre in the contiguous United States, according to the release. That land mass is 3,119,884.69 square miles, or about 1,996,726,201 acres. The graphic has 12,519,713 pixels (at 4457×2809) so it seems like there is an original, full-sized version is not available (or my math is wrong), but it’s still quite an excellent image.
