Have You Ever Seen Such Mysterious Trees.?

Have you ever gone hiking through the woods and saw a tree with an unusual shape? If you're anything like me, you probably didn't give it any thought and just kept going.

But once you find out about Dennis Downes, you won't ever view trees the same way again, I promise!

Dennis has been exploring rural America for close to 30 years in pursuit of and recording rare trees. He even created a unique society for them!
