Everyone has seen tree trunks in nature that have grown very closely together. A particularly beautiful example of a twin tree can be found here directly on the ascent to the chimney mountain. Motif for mystical photos!

The twin oak tree is easily overlooked because you are exhausted from the climb and are enjoying the view
