That’s nothing. Anyone remember the wind storm we had the first day of winter, back around 1980/1981? A tree fell across 101 in the same area as this one. 23 feet in diameter. Someone had the idea to contact old retired loggers/fallers and use their ancient power saws to cut it out. Road cleared in 24 hours.
They probably need to give it a funeral first.
