Forty years ago I planted white pine trees in rows around here. Yesterday I noticed the top snapped off the top of one! It's up at least 30 ft. I can't figure out how it happened and how to get it down. I have 4x4 tractor and truck I'm sure would pull it but getting chain around is problem. Trees are spaced 8 ft. apart and gotten pretty large. I'd hate to cut whole tree down, bottom seems ok.
Yesterday needles on broken part were still green, and no high winds at all.
I have a rope and sandbag I might could throw but too many limbs around. At 28 I'd probably climb it with a saw, but not at 68.
Just wait for it to fall some day?
