The famous geotropic Goff larch tree on the University of Wisconsin-Madison campus could be the biggest casualty of the heavy snowstorm that hit Madison on Wednesday.
The famous European conifer, one of the most historic trees on the campus, was severely damaged during the freak April storm….it’s unknown at this time if the tree, which is at least 108 years old, will be able to survive.
