Rick - I'm not ID savvy with trees but my field guide points to Quaking
Aspen and not a cottonwood tree. I'll give the tree a closer look the next
time I'm at BMNT. - Tom


Tom,
    Please post your final decision on the tree. I agree with you that it
could be Quaking Aspen. There are a few of them around. This isn't really
their climate, etc. but trees somehow find a way to survive where they
shouldn't. How else can we explain things like larch at Jug Bay.
