Largest tree you've ever seen....

There's a group of three 550 year old oaks nearby called the Three Sisters. They're pretty cool. We got permission from our neighbors to walk in their large woods, and there's a monster tree back there to rival a sister, and (I think) there's the oldest sycamore tree in Montgomery Co. It's fallen over and split and hollow but still living, and I think there's a cookie factory in there. If I ever go for another walk, I'll try to get some pics.

I took that walk today in our adjoining woods. I have permission to walk back there. Got some shots of a few massive oaks, and the oldest sycamore in Greene County (so I've read). The walk was a blast. Only took one dog for my own safety! ;-) The rockets get lit when they scent a deer.

Here is the link to the thread I had on the record Ash tree I had on my property before and after its demise.

It was 120 feet high, 128 ft crown and contained 7 1/2 cords of wood. I am still cutting it up and should be done by the end of summer.

Wondered if you were finished up that monster. 2 years + in one tree!

Some really large sycamores in our area - this is the largest.
