Great to hear! It looks like you have already done a lot of clean-up. Did you tie the trees, or did they make it through that well without help?

I positioned trucks in front of the larger trees to act as windbreak. The smaller trees I staked and tied them up. Those did well too. Here are some pictures of some smaller trees.

What sort of sustained wind speed did you get where you are at, Matt?
