Arctic Pine

====

Arctic pines are trees that can be found growing on the Fremennik isle of Neitiznot. They can be cut down using the Woodcutting skill, giving arctic pine logs and 140.2 Woodcutting experience, which requires level 54 Woodcutting. Arctic pine logs can be split, yielding an extra 42.5 Woodcutting experience per log. There are several pines north of the south-western-most bridge in Neitiznot, with a woodcutting stump for splitting the logs, and a pile to deposit the split logs. Cutting and splitting logs here gives roughly 130k-140k Woodcutting experience per hour at level 99. If you cut and split a log it gives a little more xp than cutting a yew log.

Like teak and mahogany trees, arctic pine logs cannot be cut into bows using the Fletching skill, attempting to will result in a message saying "you can't fletch that". However, arctic pine logs can be burned at level 42 Firemaking for 125 experience.

During and after The Fremennik Isles quest, arctic pine logs can be crafted on woodcutting stumps, to make Fremennik round shields and split logs. Fremennik Round shields, which take two logs to make, also require a bronze nail and rope to complete. Split logs are used to repair bridges on Neitiznot during The Fremennik Isles. Woodcutting level 54 is needed to do this.

Arctic Pines are the only tree that has a swaying animation. They move as though in a light breeze, which may reflect Neitiznot's peaceful nature.

An arctic pine is required for one of the hard Fremennik Province Tasks - make a barbarian pyre ship from arctic pine (level 52 firemaking and crafting required).
