Got brakes?

[Gem99ultra]

It's always good to get the input from an expert, especially on something like geotrophism.

P.S. I'm sincere; not trying to be a smart ass.

You got me Cruz...just call me dumb ass. "geotrophism" isn't in Meriam-Webster. Please be kind enough to tell me/us what that word means.

I think the photo is turned a bit to make it look steeper. Reminds me of all the folks who died in accidents back in the day when brake and steering failures were common or you rolled some machine over with no protection. OSHA and NTSB is so, so bad for us.

Trees grow pretty much straight to the vertical even on steep slopes. I don't think the photo was turned even a single degree. What I am surprised about is that the wheels/tires are not slipping down that dusty slope.
