Miracle Mountain

The largest American chestnut tree I have ever seen in the woods (and ironically on Miracle Mountain). Once common and majestic now a rare and lowly tree species. Stay tuned to see if this one produces any fruit this summer. Unfortunately this area will be strip mined in the near future and this tree with all its fighting will lose the battle after all.
