Is this tree Sick?

If you have time to look over on our recreational tree discussion site and tell us ( we are not Arborists) but climb trees for recreation.
Apparently some trees have what appears like a fungus or could be another environmental stress. Thanks for any input in advance. (See photo in the third Post down).

Worry not, affects dead bark.
