Bark covered with moss?

It's the PNW. Everything is covered in moss, including arborists.

Not a beech. And yes, when I shower I do have to scrub moss off of myself

That means you have been standing in one place too long. Remember, a rolling stone gathers no moss.

that may be true everywhere but the northwest.

 

[Waldo]

not alnus.

unlike other trees in this family this tree's leaves are not asymmetrically attached to the petiole.

 

[JD3000]

Ulmaceae then?

 

[JD3000]

Planera aquatica

 

[Waldo]
