Please ID these spruce

I transplanted these from our cabin yard in Grand Marais, MN. It's on the north shore of Superior, just south of Canada. I see that the native ranges of black and white spruce are very similar and the descriptions of the two species are also very similar. Do these babies look like Picea glauca or Picea Mariana? (I realize one is a Balsam Fir)

When I'm up at the cabin, how do I tell the difference between the two?

(these were also pictured in the first post I did on Gardenweb: http://forums.gardenweb.com/forums/load/conif/msg0318125324052.html)
