Image Date:  [no date]
Image Title:  Truckload all by itself.
Image Caption:  This giant of the Western pine belt makes up a truckload all by itself. Past maturity, this giant pine was ready for cutting several years earlier. Note the start of decay in the heart evident on the cross-section cut. Younger, faster growing pines will quickly take its place in the selectively logged forest.
