Thanks for the formula! The factor for a sassafras, not listed, might be 2.5. I have a 38" diameter sassafras that is about 75' tall on my property. It is as big as an oak, but it is a sassafras. It grew in a ditch that my neighbor dug in 1927, so it is up to about 95 year old. (He passed away 30 years ago) I have submitted a nomination to UT for it to be an official champion tree.

This is so cool! There’s trees that look like marker trees around where I live… one is on a path that leads to a Native burial site on a spot called Indian Grave Ridge. I don’t know how old the tree is so I can’t be sure if it was made by Indians or by someone else, but that path also leads down to the river where some kind of old road or path is. I’d don’t know for sure who, if anyone, made it, but I suspect it is man made. Thank you, sir, for posting this video, me and my buddy were just talking about this very subject last week. I’m gonna send this video to him. So I really appreciate you sharing this information, it’s really interesting and exciting!

My father's home town is Marked Tree, Arkansas. It was named for a giant oak tree on the banks of the St Francis river that the Osage indians used for many years to mark the spot where they portaged between the St. Francis & Little river to save several miles of paddling. It is the only place on earth where two rivers less than a half mile apart flow in opposite directions. My dad grew up on that bank of the St Francis River less than a mile downstream from where that tree was. When the tree died, they cut it down & hauled the stump to the town square where it remained as a symbolic marker for many years. My dad will be 95 this Nov.

Marker trees are made till this day, Indians never left, they are still here and very active. There is multiple organizations that still utilize trees, stone, greenery, etc till this day. Nations and military as well utilize these systems. Often you can't discern the age or the ill gotten gains pilferers that utilized the markings and still till this day. You just want to be aware and see what could potentially be warning or trying to get your attention.

This is VERY interesting, because I've seen a few trees around me that are bent like that, but they don't seem old enough to be from the Osage. (Ozark area) I may just have to take my tape measure out next spring when I go mushroom hunting, and date some trees. My favorite tree, I can't fit my arms half way around it, (it's not bent or anything, it's just huge) so I'd love to know how old it is. I hug it every time I pass it. 😏 Thank you so much!

It’s just a real pleasure listening to and watching your videos. Very informative and educational but for me, it’s the rich history that really draws my attention. I’m extremely happy to have found your KZitem site. Please keep this history alive. Most of my people were from the Ramapo mountains which are rich in the history of the Revolutionary War. Some family members were wood cutters supplying fire wood to stream boats using the Hudson River right into the early 20th century. The woods and mountains were an important part of my life and family history. So please keep your history going it’s an important part of American history. There aren’t many folks around here anymore, most farms are gone New York City folks and builders have destroyed a lot of our heavily forested areas built houses on some of the mountains anywhere close to main roadways. It’s really nice to read and listen to all you video and speak about. Brings back a lot of good memories but also makes me miss those areas I used to trap and hunt on. Some Trout streams were piped or filled in until the New York State put a stop to the destruction a passed laws to prevent more of this in the future. I don’t think we have to worry about global worming and Greenhouse gasses as much as builders and large corporate farming practices. Apologize for the political view.

Great video! I use to log with mules and did TSI (timber stand improvement) for local landowners who were working with our department of conservation to repair and improve mismanaged forests. There are many forests that are overgrown where the canopy space is too tight, leaving trees, though fairly old, quite small in diameter. The growth factor you mention is based on trees with a normal canopy size getting decent sunshine. It was amazing to see these spindly trees suddenly start growing after thinning out these woodlots. Also, a lot of people don't realize that trees grow old and die. One can usually tell a sick or elderly tree by splits, damage, and lackluster new growth. Though thick with green leaves, they are often hollow or rotten in its core and can be very dangerous to fell . . . I speak from experience. Thanks for the great post.

Thanks for sharing. I've learned something new today. While outdoors I find myself out of habit making brush piles due to these old trees shedding their limbs. My favorite is burning day. With that being said I will spend a lot of time looking at the beauty of nature. I have 4 very large cedar trees that line my driveway. I have also had a few offers from passers-by that would like to cut them down. It makes no sense to me to put a dollar amount on something so beautiful especially a home place for the birds year-round. I have several walnut trees for the squirrels to enjoy. One, in particular, was blown down in a straight line wind a couple years ago. It did not die but it lays alive and still putting out so it will stay though some might think it looks like an eyesore. I really don't understand why when someone builds a new home that they have to take all the trees away from that area. Sometimes it has a caricature to keep a few old trees. Anyways thanks for another great video and you have a blessed day.

"Chestnuts roasting over an open fire", as the Christmas song goes is long a thing of the past as we sadly now know. The Chestnut will send up a sapling from the still living roots but it never matures, but in time past America was built on the American Chestnut tree. With all respects, I thought the earlier story about Indian marker trees might have been stretching it a little bit but did not want to shoot it down publically. Makes for a great story and we all love a good campfire tale. Historically however we know those forest were logged over multiple times and most trees were and are 2nd and 3rd growth leaving little chance for a 200 plus year old tree to remain in all but the remotest locations. The timber man leaves nothing standing if he can skid that log out of the woods. Non the less a great tale of Appachia!

I have a question for you 🙋♂️, how is tree “Growth Factor” calculated from different species of trees? How is tree “Growth Factor” calculated? How is it calculated? How? I need to know this is because I am not too sure about how tree growth factors are estimated from different species of trees. I am not sure about that. I need to estimate a growth factor of a tree from each species of trees. I hope you can answer my questions.

All I can say is that some trees grow faster than others. The growth rate chart is something some else invented. Thanks so much for sharing this.
