Likelihood of Impacting a Target. The rate of occupancy of targets within the target zone and any factors that could affect the failed tree as it falls toward the target. ○ Very low—The chance of the failed tree or branch impacting the target is remote. ○ Rarely used sites ○ Examples include rarely used trails or trailheads ○ Instances where target areas provide protection ○ Low—It is not likely that the failed tree or branch will impact the target. ○ Occasional use area fully exposed to tree ○ Frequently used area partially exposed to tree ○ Constant use area that is well protected ○ Medium—The failed tree or branch may or may not impact the target. ○ Frequently used areas that is partially exposed to tree on one side ○ Constantly occupied area partially protected from tree ○ High—The failed tree or branch will most likely impact the target. ○ Fixed target is fully exposed to tree or tree part
