Double Flying Buttress Tree, Nelder Grove
The Double Flying Buttress Tree in Nelder Grove is 24.4 feet in diameter at the ground, 21.7 feet diameter at chest height, and 241 feet tall. It has had a couple destructive burns in its history. Prior to the Railroad fire it had been burned to the point that it had cavities under the bark on two of its sides. The cavities only got larger in the latest fire. The two flying buttresses made of the trees bark layer remind me of a loose suit coat.
