I have spent many hours in the North Maine Woods wandering high and low and I have seen love of one tree for another. This tree is about 8″ through and makes a complete wrap around a much larger one and they are still living !! Milt
“In the west, it was a common practice of the local Indian tribes to bend and or tie trees in strange configurations to mark trails or things that they wanted to return to. We still run into strange looking trees with bends or trees locked together when we are out hunting… I suspect this could be something similar. Twisting a young tree around another and tying it there until it takes shape is not out of the question for someone that might have hiked that area before us… maybe marking a good hunting ground at the time?”
