So the stump on that tree was solid but about 4 cuts further up it was down to a thin horseshoe of good wood. I few of the rounds were even worse than the pic I posted below. With the winds we’ve had over that last few summers and the other trees we’ve lost I’m very surprised this one didn’t break partway up.
I quit cutting right before I got to one of the woodpecker holes as I figured I’d give the bats a few days to vacate.
