Some of the most beautiful trees in Alto have structural weaknesses that put them at risk — split trunks, co-dominant stems, or heavy overextended limbs. Rather than removing a tree that still has years of life in it, cabling and bracing can give it the support it needs to stand safely for decades more.
Alto's older farmstead trees — especially multi-stemmed silver maples and large-canopy oaks — often develop included bark and co-dominant stems that benefit from cabling. This preserves shade and property value while reducing storm-damage risk.
