I climbed a tree which I thought was OK but when I got set at height I realized it was a dead tree but not dead a long time. I felt a little uncomfortable but thought it was just new seasoned wood. It may have been a recent kill of the Spotted Lanternfly. I thought about climbing down but did not and everything was OK.
I did the same thing a few weeks ago. I got to where I wanted to be and scewed in a hook to hang my bow and it didn't feel right, I looked up and realized the tree was dead.
