Great job
You have a great start to you website . I love the picture of the woods . It is a great picture.
I am not an expert on
I am not an expert on hemlocks, but I think you found a similar species to hemlock, balsam fir. Balsam fir needles look a lot like hemlock needles with the 2 racing stripes, but they connect to the twig with a suction cup instead of a small stem. Those tricky conifers :)

That's something we didn't
That's something we didn't think of! Great catch! Maybe ID cards for the Balsam Fir should be included in the mission so they don't get confused!
