Ive been looking at it for a while.

future for the elm
elms are amaziningly fast growers, i would trunk chop it and start over i dont think andy oth those branches are usable, and the trunk is long and slender and has some strange movement at places. but that is just my idea. see how hard walter cuts back elms you can see that they bounce back stonger than you can imagine.
