>> Trees kill a lot of people.
This is a truth we can't escape in the North Woods. My husband was a Fire
crew Saw Boss with the Forest Service. He had trained and managed some of
the top firefighters on national crews. Four years ago, first day of the
season, he was clearing brush no larger than 3 inch diameter. One was
hidden trapped under the forest duff, released by the one he cut. It hit
him in the head like a baseball bat. He was in full safety gear, helmet,
goggles, chaps etc. He was in a coma for 2 weeks before he passed away.
All trees must be treated with respect.
