It is sad to see such a great tree fall. But that being said, like a dead buffalo we should use what can be used, so the question I have is who gets salvage rights to this tree? and is there anywhere one would be able to inspect any lumber that might be salvaged from it. I'm in the area, or close enough.
I would not want to assume that there is any usable material, on the other hand I would not want to assume there is not.
I just think it would be cool to make an instrument out of such a historic tree with such a story behind it. Think I'll google around and see if I cant find out what they're doing with it.
If anyone has any info, please post it.
edit; in state park, it will sit and rot and be part of the ecosystem, so they say, so no tree for me
