That's one of the M81 group I probably can't take as it is at nearly 70
degrees. I have a tree that shields the roof from snow. It used to
allow me to get to about 75 degrees but it has grown and I found when
Tuttle was north of 70 degrees it was well into the tree. It grew a lot
more than I expected. It's been very dry here and the tree has shown
signs of water stress. I didn't expect it to grow but it has. At 120'
its too high to top, no cherry picker can get that high.

That's a faint one that could use even more time it appears.

Correct domain name is arvig and it is net not com. Prefix is correct.
Third character is a zero rather than a capital "Oh".

Nice shot John, this one is on my list too.
