Pinioin pines...
I'm not familiar with the Rocky Mountain States...or what part of Wyoming you're from, but out here in the West we have pinion pines, south of us, in California and Nevada, and they can be harvested in the early Fall, before the squirrles get to them for storing for Winter. It's a messy, sappy job, and if you get hay fever easily, watch out! You have to shake the trees and that releases summer dust accumulation and pollen, by the bucketfuls.
An easier way to "harvest" them is at the grocery store. You can usually find them at the bigger stores, wherever they have nuts in bottles and cans. They come from China and they don't have such a strong "piney" taste or smell. Very good for you. Also, quite expensive. Good luck in your "gathering."
