Comments:
2024 comments: Tree resides on a steep slope that was selectively harvested a few years ago. The tree has a full, healthy crown, but has a serious structural flaw in codominant leaders with bark inclusion that extends from ground line to about 5.5' above ground.
The tree has two stems at 4.5' above ground. Circumference measurement at that height was 181". Each stem was measured separately where they diverge above the included bark at about 5.5' above ground. Those measurements were 123" and 133", which results in a composite functional circumference that is also 181".
2012 comments: The tree is very healthy. Measured by Dennis Anderson at 161" trunk, 110' height, 53' crown, and 284 points.
