For some reason sycamores don't seem to last long around here. They all just topple over when you'd think they had many years left to grow. I wonder if it has anything to do with our water table being so high...?
Of course since you're in a swamp I guess yours is too. Well let me know if you have any ideas!
FC, Sycamores are one of my all-time favorite trees. I even wrote a poem about them in third grade. I love the leaves, the distinctive bark, the seeds, and even the feel of the tree.

rurality,
That is curious. Sycamores usually like it pretty wet, but not sopping wet. I don't know what might be the cause of your sycamore dilemma.
Sycamores of any size are a rarity here. We must be at their southern terminus.
There's a few around and their whitish bark always makes them stand out.
