Went up to the cabin yesterday to find a new milling project!!!
Its hard to tell the size from the pics because the trunk sunk in the mud near the rootball, but the base is 40". The only problem is going to be moving it!!! I did some rough calculations. For an average 66lbs/cu. ft. green, a 10' x 36" section of this tree would weigh almost 4800lbs. There's no access to the tree from anywhere close, and even if I had a portable winch, I couldn't get a cord around it!!!!! I wont get to it for a while anyway.
