Default Re: Lightning Trees--Experience?

Oddly, I've only seen one to date - in Hoyt Arboretum in Portland, Oregon.


This is lookingup at 40 feet or so of a taller wound. This is theshade side / north, so sunburn is ruled out. Must be lightning.


High part of Portland & tall tree. Douglas fir or Grand fir if I recall right.
