six figures? Black walnut is $10-$20 per bf at my local lumber yard. Taking the lowest six figure amount and the highest lumber yard price, that would require a black walnut tree that is 100 times larger than the typical northwest fir.
- genocidicbunny 4y agoPerhaps the difference between the lumber cost and the replacement cost? Replacing an old, large tree can easily get into the six figure ranges because in most jurisdictions, you'd have to replace like for like. So to replace a 100 year old black walnut, you'd need to find another 100 year old black walnut, transport it, transplant it, hope it survives (so you don't need to repeat the process.)
