Dead Trees

Me climbing on a tree that has been long dead from a forest fire.

Nine Major Cuts of Large Branches To Get To This Point & Then They Left This Standing.

This tree is living on because of one slim part that is still alive. I love how the dead part seems to be hugging the thinner part to hold on to it until it can survive on its own. Every winter I expect the tree to fall and it hasn't.

Where beauty is in everything.

Good roots equals "Be safe."

Dead tree on the bank of the Brisbane River

The skeleton of a long dead tree at nearly 8000 feet at Glacier National Park, Montana.

A nearby placard explained the reason there are many dead stumps in the area where Mt. St. Helens erupted. At one time these trees were probably 150 feet (45 meters) high. When the blast exploded sideways it carried a lot of debris, large chunks of rock, ice and splintered wood. Within a minute, this tree that may have been hundreds of years old, was struck, stripped and scattered toward the edge of the blast zone 17 miles away in the nearly 700 miles per hour (1,120 km/h) wind.

I shot this dead tree on LA-1 going to Grand Isle, LA.

Timber! The other day, the tree fell into our neighbors yard.

I love this tree but not the weeds. I'd like to revisit when there are less clouds and more blue skies.
