The pignut
hickory in Swannanoa. It's really a beautiful tree, obviously
pretty old and with great structure, though the trunk is hollow
at about 110 feet or so- you can look into a racoon-sized hole
and see the shell of wood about 4 inches thick. There are two
leaders at the top, nearly equal in height, so we measured both.
The west leader measured to 162'4", the east leader was
163'4". Photo and comments by Michael Davie
