Just curious as to how old this tree is as it has four trunks and wondering if the rings on the multi trunks are a clear indicator as each trunk being 3-4" across with the main trunk 7-8" across. Also this is one tree not 4 fused together. Thought I had all 4 pictures but only 3.0205171243a.jpg 0205171243.jpg 0205171243_HDR.jpg
 
It does depend on where the cut area comes from on the tree but by the slices (images) you show it looks to be around 12 years old. If these stems suckered after the main stem was a certain age the main stem could be older, however it may not be.......but instead the growth rings could be much larger (as indicated by the larger diameter).

It's about 1/3 up the tree but the bark indicates much old but I'm not totally sure
