I am guessing the included fork failed when the trunk hi the deck? shows how little timber actually held that together really well. would you mind if I stuck those in the chatty trees thread?

Called out to a Veitchs Silver Fir with Taupo Treeman today.

This tree was growing to close to the Friendship Rock, (Not Joking)

and some Earth works company Boss wanted his picture taken there.

 

After arriving and arguing with a gardener about how the Tree had more character than the rock we gently gained some Rock Clearance with a silky

and proceeded to "inspect" this fine specimen.

 

 

All in all, a sound tree with maybe some non invasive bracing in the future

and a good excuse for a blaze on the wrench of glory!
