Good eye Pat53, that area is loaded with them, we milled some nice boards out of some Hemlock in the summer.

We have a fair amount of hemlock here as well, altho it tends to grow in just certain areas, not widespread. My brother and I, in our "logging days" cut some monster hemlock down up north. One was 51 inches across the stump. A lot of ours has what is called "shake" in the bottom 10 feet or so of the trunk. Supposedly its caused by the tree swaying in the wind and the rings actually seperate a bit. So when they go to the mill, they have to cut some of the butt away to get out of the shake. Does yours get the "shakes" as well? LOL
