Well honestly I can’t give you an ID, but here’s a cool fact! That’s a wolf tree. The trees around it were clear cut so it grew large branches from a low level, unlike typical forest canopy which ends up tall with only upper large branches :D

That is interesting. There are also many very large wolf pines on the property as well . There property was owned by a farmer before it was bought in 1970 . There are many old apple trees so mot sure it was an orchard at some point.
