I went up in the area I worked in this spring and found these two sugar maple, they had been broke off about twenty feet up from the ground.

Since the wife and I TAP our Sugar Maples each year on our property, it makes me sad when one dies. Are you certain those are Sugar Maples? I would have expected a more extensive branch system on them. Those seem awfully straight and branchless, to be "Sugar Maples."

Positive on the identification, it could be because that area needed to be thinned out and yes I never drop a live Sugar Maple.
