Here is one of my favorite natural root over rock trees I have come across. This is a western red cedar grasping a large boulder. The boulder is approximately 10’ tall. E2E2237F-8661-4A82-84C0-250420945A75.jpeg
Another picture with my hat in it for scale. The tree is a double trunk. Each trunk is about 4’ DBH. The major roots are more than a foot thick. They grow em big here. 1DA3B811-F114-42E7-AB23-9A9C81131C53.jpeg

I love root over rock trees and try to take pictures every time I see one. This one is a pine when I was in Slovenia last year. It has a very large root system over the rock.Pine Slovenia .jpgThe second image is a beech taken near Beddgelert in North Wales UK.Root over Rock Beddgelert .JPGThe last one is a Hawthorn growing on the side of rock, taken on the slopes of Snowdon, North Wales UK
