Ice on the tree and the sunlight made the usually pale orange hue of this Ponderosa pine bark look deep orange. Almost red in areas.

The patterns on that bark are curious with the black outlines. Do you know if that's some kind of sap?
That is charring from a prescribed burn that took place a few years ago. They do it to try to help control wildfires. Supposedly safe for the trees.
