ArboristSite Operative
I'm usually over on the milling forum but came over here to ask advice of any professional arborists who might be around. I saw this tree in someone's back yard and went to see if I could possibly mill it. The woman who owns it said that would be fine.
As you can see from the images, one part is still alive but the majority is not. Is there any way to remove the large section and leave the rest so that it will have a chance to survive? My concern is that a great deal of the tree will be unprotected by bark after that point. Anyone have any ideas?
The woman is ok with the whole thing coming down if necessary but would prefer to keep the live part if possible.
Thanks in advance!
