In The Woods
After stacking I decided to take all the bark that came off back to a low spot on a trail I'm making wider.

Picture 1691 is the area the bark gets dumped, 1692 is part of a mother nature downed beech, 1693 is a maple mother nature put down and 1694 is what's left standing and 1695 is another maple....sugar I hope.

Big doug firs and locust can create some large bark slabs. In the past I have used them, shingle style, to top cover stacks.

I guess the biggest tree we have on our property with a thick bark are some Hemlocks.
