The biggest Wolf tree in my woods started to fall apart about 6 years ago. The wolves get spared the loggers blades usually because they are very branchy down low to the stump. Another gigantic red oak that lived at a corner boundary fell two years ago. My idea of gigantic is 4'+ diameter. No idea how many rings those contain, but fairly safe to assume they were around before steam engines were. I think you'll enjoy this Eric. I found it a couple years ago and thought it was interesting. He has a couple others. Lately, I have been trying to source free Lidar maps of my property. After watching a guy reveal American Indian earthworks around my State with it I am fully intrigued. I think it would show all my trails giving me a 'map' of them. Might be some other interesting stuff hiding also.
Yeah absolutely, I've watched all of Tom Wessels' videos on the New England Forests YouTube channel, many of them 2-3 times. There's so much good information in there
Glad you got a kick out of it I'm big into forest forensics in my area too. I love finding old homesites, abandoned civilization, wolf trees, former pasture lands reclaimed by the forest, etc. I have more old relics and junk than space to store it all
