Notes:

Tree 4 is a hollow shell of 13′ 3” (404cm) at 3′ which would have been larger when complete. It has two growth points only. One is a branch that has not been able to to remain upright and has slowly bent over without breaking. It grows away from the path parallel to the ground. The second growth point also runs parallel to the path and is propped up by some of its own branches that are firmly embedded in the ground (entering at rt angles) This has also leaned over slowly. Measurement will be considerably less when the dead section decays.
