I've lost some here, looks similar to what was posted. Another maple with less shaggy bark, seems to self destruct, wind, storms, splits at where the canopy starts, which is not that high up, the trunks are relatively short compared to others. These at a certain age, just split into 3rds or so, one in a hedge row, part of the privacy between these old fields, now with homes, 2/3 split off, yet I let the other 3rd stay, to keep the tree line and privacy, is doing fine, full canopy, I'd have thought different, not near anything, eventually with the exposed heart wood, but, for now its hard to believe looking at it, it did run sap, and was sweet, I'm not wise to the species of these maples, and how to tell em apart yet.
