It would have been taller, if SOMEONE hadnt told them to cut it down lower...... :monkey:

Was it Red MAple or Red Oak? I have bad vision and couldnt see the twigs, but the bark I thought was Red Oak.

That is funny, I was looking at the photo before I read OTG's post and thought "is that a red oak?" then looked a little closer and thought, "It's a red maple". With all the lichen it looks like it's from woods near the coast.

Couldn't make it this year, wanted to look at some Stihl saws. Sorry I missed OTG doing his demo and hanging around Shelter Tree's display. Next time.

Went on wed, pretty cool. Saw some good climbing demos with Michael Tain, Melissa Lavange and others, didn't learn too much I didn't already know. Gonna plan for all three days next year so i can hang with friends in Bos. I did get paid an 8 hour day to be there though!

I was there for the setup on saturday, they knocked about five feet off of the bottom to fit it into the stand and the base was covered in p.i.!

It was definately a red maple.
