Standing deadwood is also a mighty crush-injury hazard when a stiff breeze fells either the entire tree, or just a large limb. When mentoring young troops, we point out these as things to avoid pitching a tent/building shelter near, or stringing a hammock, where one of these "Widowmakers" can ruin your night.

I'm loving this!

I have a friend in California with a dead tree in her own backyard. The city will not let her remove it!

So does the city monitor the trees presence? Most cities I've lived in would have no clue a tree disappeared! I lived in Watauga and they had an ordinance that you had to have a permit to paint your house, city is closed on Saturday and Sunday, I painted my house on Saturday and was done by Sunday afternoon, I had two neighbors that had agreed to swear to the city my house was always that color, never heard a peep from the city!
