Yeah the top half fell off last year and a recent storm took care of the rest.
Luckily my trail cam was on a tree just ahead of where it fell.

5 minutes with a chainsaw will take care of that. :) When you live out in the woods, you have to deal with the trees. ;)

Often carry a chainsaw on the 4wheeler for just such occasions. Been known to clear downed trees from the county roads here long before the county workers could get here.

I had a nice Stihl with an 18" bar for use around the farm. We heated with a wood stove for years. But once that femur went, the Doc said absolutely not. Miss T knows me well. She gave the chainsaw to a friend with orders he was to NEVER loan it back.
