This is really interesting, but for those of us who can barely wrap the
strap around the trunk to get a circumference, never mind height, do you
think you could add circumference to these measurements?

Tom,
Thanks, for giving us this fine summary. With you and Robert Henry on the
lose with a Forestry 550, I expect the numbers will quickly grow. We need to
organize a trip to Zoar Valley and bring the measurements up to date. It has
been far too long since ENTS has visited the Valley.
