Wow, Wish I could've seen that stand before it blew down. Kind of luck wishing I could've seen Tionesta before that one blew down, at least that monster of a black cherry they had there. Hey that reminds me, they have a section of its bole in Sheffield, not too far from here. I need to run up there and get some pics and measurements.
