GF makes no excuse for this gratuitous photo of the tree roots.

Any regular reader (as if!) would know how much the GF likes trees. These roots reminded the GF of the knuckles of a climber clinging on to the side of steep incline. In practice, that's exactly what this sows. The tree was growing on the steep southern slope of the valley and the roots were trying to find purchase where they could.
