If you don’t want hurt by a tree, don’t camp under one
This is a follow up on a lawsuit filed by a man injured when a tree fell on him at a #BSA camp. It is said that he suffered such traumatic injuries, however the facts still remain. You cannot see the rot, death or decay of trees as they stand. If you do not want to be hit by a tree if it falls, don’t camp under any trees.
If a tree falls in the woods, is there someone around to start a lawsuit?
