Description
April 19, 2018 Albuquerque New Mexico
Our beloved cottonwood was struck by a 95 mile per hour micro-burst of twisting winds. A single limb weighting more than 1k pounds fell into the back yard. In its last act of love, perfectly missing every structure it would have definitely destroyed had it landed on. We've been delighted to have this magnificent being adorn our yard and shelter our home from the piercing New Mexico for more than twenty five years. But because of this terrible injury the tree has been found to be compromised beyond repair so on April 30th our mighty cottonwood will be taken down. More pix to follow.

we're going to leave the stump - about 3' high - in place - cottonwoods are very fast growing trees and we should have decent sized "sprouts" in about three years
