Having spent way too much of my life driving through Indiana, Illinois, and Iowa, I can confirm that they all belong on this list.

Indiana has some nice forested areas in the south, but not enough to offset the rest of the state.

I got 6/10 missed everything @cornflakesfu said plus Wyoming but Wyoming is just a wasteland with less than 600,000 residents who are cowboys in Cheyenne raiding Coloradans that drive into it (jk wyoming is awesome)

Trying to figure out where the forests are in Nevada... I guess there near the Sierra Nevada.

The area around Lake Tahoe definitely has its fair share, and I can imagine there's some forestland near Great Basin National Park too.

If you enter Nebraska from the east or west and immediately fall asleep, then awaken when you reach the next border, you'll think you haven't gone anywhere.

I missed the Dakotas and Kansas.

I assumed they had some forested areas.

What determines whether or not trees will grow in an area?

Wind? Soil? Rainfall patterns?

I guess trees need, "..deep, organically rich, pH neutral, aired soil."

and, "Generally, the soil caracteristics of grasslands are:

- Poor infiltration;

- Too deep water table (dry grasslands); or

- Too high water table (wet grasslands);

- Very thin layer of soil over hard rock;

- High acidicity;

- Poor in macronutrients;

- Low presence of organic matter."

And apparently fauna such as deer and rabbits eat the saplings.

All I've heard is that the majority of "reforestation" projects fail to a great extent :/

Except for missing Wisconsin, a lot of German majority states.

Curious since Germans tend to love their forests a lot
