The widow-makers usually fall out from the trunk a little bit so you should
be hugging the trunk. If the limb comes from another tree though....who
knows. /jmac

Good question, in a wind storm headed back to HQ at Big Basin in Dec 2002 I
saw 5 trees come down, by the time you can locate where the sound is coming
from, they are on the ground, so the choice is to run for the base of a
large tree, and maybe have a widow maker hit you, or just grit your teeth
and keep heading for the parking lot.
That storm taught me I have no business in the park when we have high wind
warnings.
