second split

[zaphod1798]

This is the second White Ash I have taken down in 2 weeks like this. It was overhanging a fairway in NJ so it was exposed to high, direct wind. When it hit the ground it split 25ish ft from notch to split. Sorry I didnt get too many pics, it was hot and I just wanted to go home today!

No, just the camera angle and shutter speed. It looks that way though, huh?!

Cool pics how did you rig the tree to prevent more exstensive splitting?

Did it split all the way while it hit the ground?

Thanks,I took the picture and a friend did the cutting, note the back cut, hinge and face cut actually line up. If I had done the saw work it would of looked more like one of those 3-D puzzle pieces.
