- The state champion European Beech tree at Wissahickon Valley Park has sadly been declining for years. This year, only a few small branches leafed out. It’s death teaches us that sometimes, appreciating nature should be done at a distance where humans can’t affect it.
“If love could have saved you, you would have lived forever”… wow
What a bunch of Beeches, lol but seriously some humans won’t miss what we have till it’s gone.
Sad but true
It's true. Hope you're doing well!!
Why do ppl carve stuff into trees. I’ll never understand
Like the Caves of Lascaux… the act of visiting and appreciating it caused mold and deterioration of the ancient art and we had to permanently seal it up and stop going.
It’s unfortunate that humans just seem to destroy everything, whether we mean to or not…
It was an invasive species.
Sad. Ive spent many hours hiking and mtn biking there. I love that place.
How can u destroy even the thgs u like or find interesting?
As a non native tree it shouldnt be loved, and rather cut, burned or poisoned.
it was non native so why does it matter?
I agree, it's not even native to the land it's on . Soo..it's a novelty at this point
It's still a piece of living history. If it isn't invasive or otherwise harming its ecosystem, then we shouldn't be happy for its demise
