Great work Stephen!

Mutant ponderosa Sam, best guess. Surrounded by ponderosa. Must have found an amazing water supply. We'll count some rings once I fall her.
Cha, gonna make some noise...lol

Does this link to the old thread work work for anyone? I just takes me to a blank page.

Do you mean genetic variation, or is it an old, veteran tree with the top busted out again and again?

What cut were you using to blow those huge limbs?

Works here...takes me to old picture pages.

 

[CurSedVoyce]

I will know more once I get in the top Sean.
But I am wondering if it genetic. Possibly cross pollenization. Cones look right, needles look right. Dunno.
Coos bay mostly.

 

[pantheraba]

Stephen, I think it could be instructive if you can video some of those Coos Bay cuts on limbs as you do them. An idea to ponder....

 

[CurSedVoyce]

I need to get my GoPro fixed. The case broke.

 

[MasterBlaster]

Thanks, Gary. I'll edit the link into the opening post.

 

[SeanKroll]

I figured you might have. Seems like the best, easiest cut for those.

Gary, Burnham used a similar cut to the Coos Bay for some snow-tipped trees. There was some discussion. https://www.masterblasterhome.com/showthread.php?9410-Beranek-s-Coos-Bay-felling-cut-vs-Burnham-s


As a side-note, that was easy to find just by Google Searching

Most likely a pondo, seen many like that. Genetics, environment and chance I'd say.

It's ok for me, a blank page came first but soon enough the thread's page shown (time to download the data).

Worked for me, Butch.

Its a big mutant pondo (deathstar of a pine) for sure

I did one last year like this but branches not as big as yours, but bigger than normal for sure

What have I started...Cha! is for a really big wow, not an everyday type wow...and, just to be paradoxical, when accompanied with sucking your teeth is an expression of discontent.

A few more from the archives...

 

[MasterBlaster]

Piney!

 

[Sgriff]

That thangs a PIG Fiona! You such a badazz,when i was a kid I use to hate cleaning them (norfolk/starpines)up when they would get flopped whole,millions of pieces every where lol. Now I would say I enjoy floppin em whole hehehee
