You're welcome. I looked at some more photos. Looks like the leaves can vary in shape a bit. Your location looks a little out of range ... maybe it's a relative. Interesting. Whatever it turns out to be, it is very beautiful.

Hi Luis ... the leaves aren't quite right, but it looks a lot like Mountain Mahogany, Cercocarpus betuloides.
