Where are timber pines located in Fortnite?

Ultimately, as long as you’re in the northwest corner of the map (where the snow is), you should be able to find timber pines, but you’ll definitely have an easier time if you visit Logjam Lotus.

How to knock down a timber pine in Fortnite

Once you’ve found a group of timber pines in Fortnite, knocking them down is as simple as giving them a few hits with your pickaxe. You can also shoot or explode them, but that will draw attention to you.

Be aware that a timber pine tree will damage anything it lands on, including you. If the tree is on a hill or an incline, it will roll down in that direction and take out any other timber pines in its path, which is useful.

If you’re looking to knock down a timber pine with a Ripsaw Launcher to complete the weekly challenge, you’ll need to find one from the Chop Shop north of Logjam Lotus, then fire it directly at the timber pines.

If this doesn’t work, you could always shoot the timber pine until it falls by leaning out the window.
