Big tree thread

[jabber]

Your photo reminded me of another tree on an equally windswept, empty part of Wyoming.

Everything seemed to orient from this tree. Antelope, cattle and people used it for shade, butchery, and orientiering. The ground under it was trampled and eroded to the point that the roots were exposed and worn. Not sure how it survived and I wonder if it still does. Antelope unit 67. Anyone seen it lately?

This tree was on a site I worked this week in Wyoming. Plains cottonwood, 70.2 dbh.

I measure trees most everyday at work, rarely take a picture of a tree, but this one was pretty exceptional for Wyoming.

Not real big coulter pine. Widow maker pine cones. Told my daughter I would like to see that tree gone before I pull out the olf camper and put the tiny house in cause the pine cones are going to dent the roof when they fall.
She mentioned to the landlord and its down.
I counted the rings and got 70. Same age as me.

Not exactly big, but I thought it was pretty cool how this aspen came down over the winter.

Went backpacking this weekend. First time in way too long. Found a couple big trees. Nothing huge, but pretty big for the Snowies.
