Rotting Trees that will fall on you
By Wayne, 11/03/09
Beware. I was tenting here when my whole family was almost killed by a gaint cottonwood that came crashing down within a few feet of my tent. The staff told me,"It was an act of God and that it was not their fault." Upon closer examination the tree was completly rotted out and should have been cut down a long time ago. I started talked to the groundskeeping and he reluctantly informed me that the owners new about the trees lack of integrity in the park and he also added, "that it was only the cottonwoods and the insects that were hollowing it out left a void for it to fill with water which rotted and made the tree to heavy to support its own weight. After that I noticed that half the treees in the park are already propped up with telephone polls. Its not an act of God when you know that the trees are suspect and you have only been lucky that no one has known that you have known about these issues. Apart from the trees the place reaks of skunks and the management is rude at best.
