This tree had died and uprooted, but ended up resting against another at about 45 degrees. I figured, I'd just cut out the bottom and it would fall out. Nope. All solid hardwood, about two and a half feet long cut out, and the rest of the tree (on the left) just went back onto the ground. ***** that!
(underneath it is another smaller dead tree that was laying in my foot space so I cut it into a few sections to move)
This is the smaller of a multiple-trunk tree out by the pond. Again, solid through the core. It actually fell across the outstream. The main trunk, also dead, is about two feet across. I hit it with the axe - the head sank all the way in, then it all crumbled away. I might tackle that next, or wait till I get the chainsaw working.
Another tree out by the pond.
This is what's left of the ******* that killed my side mirror.
Here is the pile of smaller trees that I hauled up to the house. that's the axe I was using, and in the back a set of hedge clippers I used to clear back the brush around the mailbox and along the road.
