Actually the wire is eating the tree.

The most interesting thing I saw today on a very uneventful hunt. This tree is the only thing holding this barbed wire up, no idea how old the fence was. It was running through the middle of state land. Maybe one side of it was private at one point, but more likely it was there from some old grazing lease years ago. Kind of stupid but I like seeing things like this, or old abandoned homesteads, the relics of past human labor being absorbed by the forest. I don't know why, it just does something for me. Now I'm hunkering down to wait out a snowstorm for a couple days, and when it's over I will get back to hunting.

A saw mill's nightmare, that. second only to trees that have had many a shit nailed to them over the years. great for ruining a saw blade.

I have an excess of trees in my backyard ive been thinning out, but being as how i still have too many i started hanging little targets on one 50 yards from my living room to fuck around with my .22wmr. Put so many little rimfire rounds in that 12"ish tree that its fallen. Mostly subsonic unjacketed hollowpoints too. That sucker is full of lead. Wouldnt want to take a chainsaw to it near the break. I should do something about that at some point. Cut around the break and bury the contaminated chunks, use the rest as fire pit wood.
