Saw this sign while out on a ride with the Ural today. Didn't have a clue what it meant, so I kept my eyes peeled as I rode through the area just in case the little buggers were mobile and waiting to spring out in ambush...

Get the hell out of there Gummie, nothing good can come from small trees. I know what they did to a ole trapper dude I knew.

Run...run...for you life.

Attack of the Shrubberies?

Did you see any rabbits guarding any bridges or anything?

As a computer pilot, I can tell you: if you see trees, especially small ones ...

I know from skiing that small trees have a tendency to get bent over by heavy snow.

When the tips of your ski's remove said snow from the tree, and it springs back up . . . the results usually is not good.

It seems to be a warning that in high winds small trees can be uprooted, causing a hazard. This may be Eastern Canada's version of tumbleweed. Kudos to you for taking the Ural out on a lovely ride.

Thanks. Since taking it out on 1 Jan 10, I've put another 226km on the odometer.

Yeah but they look like really hard kms

Maybe those trees are ENTS and that sign is like a children's crossing sign.

Hey, you never know.

In 1798 Jessie Tree married Emma Sap. They went on an epic journey to Ontario where they moved into the forest away from the madness of the big cities.

Then one day Emma found out that she was pregnant. 9 months later she had twins.

While these twins were still young - they turned to a life of crime. Robbing banks and shooting anyone who dared enter the forest. Their names were Bob (Branch) and Jessie (Leaf) Tree.

By the age of 8 the Tree brothers reigned fear over that whole area - prompting people to erect signs to warn others of the "Small Trees".

So powerful was the legend - that those signs still exist today.

I read it somewhere on the internet.
